Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup butter or margarine
  • 1 egg large
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 ½ to 4 cups flour depends on humidity + 1/3 cup for dusting

Instructions

  1. Cream butter and sugar (whip until fluffy). Add egg, vanilla, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Mix slightly.
  2. Add in baking powder and flour; mix until the dough is not-tacky to the touch (should not stick to your fingers, but should be sticky).
  3. Place dough in the fridge for 1 hour. Take out a small ball (1/3 of the dough), and roll it out on a lightly dusted surface.
  4. Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees F.
  5. Simply roll out some sugar-cookie dough into a thin line (make your fingers thin because they will spread), apply an almond shard and score the knuckles.
  6. Place cookies on a parchment-lined cookie sheet and place in the freezer to chill for 3 minutes.
  7. Bake cookies for 7 to 12 minutes. Cook until the edges are just brown.
  8. Brush with a little cocoa-powder after baking (with a paint brush) to make the hands look dirty and give them contrast.

Notes

  • Don’t worry about selecting perfect almonds, because the uglier the nails, the creepier.
