Ingredients

Servings

• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter
• 1 large Egg
• ¹⁄₄ cup Milk
• 30 whole Almonds
• 10 drop Red food coloring
• 2 tablespoon Maple syrup
• 2 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. In a separate bowl, beat the egg and milk together. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
5. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and roll each portion into a thin finger shape.
6. Place the fingers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use a knife to make small indentations for the knuckles.
7. Press an almond into one end of each finger to create the nail.
8. In a small bowl, mix together the red food coloring and a few drops of water. Use a brush to paint the fingers with the red coloring, leaving the nail and knuckle areas unpainted.
9. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
10. While the fingers are baking, prepare the dip by mixing together the maple syrup and Dijon mustard.
11. Serve the Witch's Finger Bread Sticks with the Maple Mustard Dip on the side. Enjoy!
