Scary Witchy Finger Cookies
INGREDIENTS
- Cake flour
- 100g Castor sugar (you can use normal sugar if you don’t have castor sugar
- 200g Butter, softened (not microwaved!)
- 1 Egg
- Almond flakes
- Red berry jam
Makes 30 cookies
2hrs incl resting time
Super mega easy
DIRECTIONS
- Place the flour and sugar in a large bowl and add the butter. Work it into the flour with your fingertips until you have a mix resembling fine crumbs.
- Add the egg and mix the dough until it comes together.
- Place the dough in your fridge to rest for 1 hour.
- In the meanwhile, preheat the oven to 180C
- Remove dough from the fridge and break off just enough to shape it into a finger. Using a knife, make small imprints to resemble wrinkles of the knuckles. Place an almond sliver on top end of the finger to create a nail.
- Repeat until you have run out of energy to make witchy fingers.
- Place fingers on a greased tray and bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
- Once baked, let cool. Now dip the base of the fingers into the berry jam to create a look of blood.
- Let the jam set for a few minutes and then tuck into what will most probably be the weirdest cookie you will ever eat.
- Sometimes the nails come off but you can simply stick them back on by using the berry jam as glue.
- This dough is wonderful for cookie making. Roll it out into all shapes and sizes.
- I like to add cinnamon and orange to the dough for a seriously yummy twist!
