Witches' Fingers - Scary Halloween Cookies
Report
Scary finger cookies that look bad, but taste good!
Share:
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter at room temperature
- ¾ cup confectioner's sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- ⅛ tsp salt
- ¼ cup raspberry jam as needed
- 30 almond slices pick out the ones that aren't broken
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325℉ (160℃).
- Cream butter and sugar until smooth.
- Add the egg and vanilla and mix well. Gradually add flour, baking powder and salt to the mixture.
- Refrigerate the dough for about half an hour, so it's not too soft to handle.
- Begin by taking pieces of dough and rolling into a thin "finger" shape. They can be long and thin or fat and short, they all look great in the end. Make them a little crooked for a more authentic "witch" look.
- Use a knife to make the knuckle marks and then an indentation for the fingernail.
- Place on silicone sheet lined baking tray about 2" apart. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until just beginning to brown. Cool on rack.
- Put a little jam on the nail bed and add an almond slice. Store in tin.
Notes
- Make the night before or early in the day so jam has time to set/dry a little before serving or packaging.
