What are witches' fingers?
Witches’ fingers are spooky Halloween treats that look just like creepy witch hands! They’re usually made from biscuit or cookie dough, shaped into long, knobbly fingers with an almond or chocolate button for a fingernail. Some even have a dab of red jam to make them extra gory (in a fun way, of course!).
🚨 Ask a grown-up to help you when baking with hot or sharp equipment! 🚨
