Ingredients
- 20 pretzel rods
- 2 cups green candy melts
- 1/3 cup sliced almonds
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lay a large sheet of parchment paper on a clean surface. Have toothpicks and the sliced almonds ready to go next to the parchment paper.
- Add 2 cups green candy melts to a medium-sized heat-proof bowl. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals until fully melted and smooth. Transfer the melted candy into a tall, narrow glass or cup.
- Dip the 20 pretzel rods one at a time into the glass until they are at least 2/3 of the pretzel is covered. Remove from the cup and gently shake off the excess candy. Place on the parchment paper.
- After 4 or 5 pretzels, pause the dipping to add details to the already-dipped pretzels. Press a slice of the 1/3 cup sliced almonds on the top of the pretzel to be the nail. Use a clean toothpick to make the knuckles, which are just two sets of three lines spaced below the almond as knuckles are spaced on a finger. You may need to wipe off the toothpick or get a clean one if the lines aren't defined enough.
- Let the fingers sit undisturbed until the candy has fully set up.
