Scary Witchy Finger Cookies

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!
