For the Fingers

  • 1 cup Candy Coating (chocolate or white chocolate) Experiment with flavored melts for variety.
  • 1 cup Candy Eyes Opt for googly eyes for a playful touch.

  • 1 cup Sprinkles (themed) Use Halloween-themed sprinkles for decoration.

Equipment

  • Microwave-safe bowl

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Gather all your ingredients for the Witches’ Fingers at room temperature. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) if you’re creating any baked items.
  2. Melt your chosen candy coating in a microwave-safe bowl according to package instructions, stirring in 30-second bursts until smooth.
  3. Dip one end of each pretzel rod into the melted candy coating, ensuring it’s well coated, then place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. While the coating is still wet, press a sliced almond onto the end of each rod to create fingernails.
  5. Allow the Witches’ Fingers to sit for about 15-20 minutes or until the candy coating hardens completely.
  6. Once set, attach candy eyes using melted candy coating, and decorate with sprinkles as desired.
  7. Serve the Witches’ Fingers on a spooky platter or in a decorative basket.
