Finger Cookies That Cast a Sweet Spell

Finger Cookies That Cast a Sweet Spell

Halloween time is officially here, and I’m all about cookies that look a little spooky but taste completely delicious. These Witch Finger Cookies are made with a no-spread cookie recipe, which means all those little knuckles and creepy details stay exactly where you want them. No cookie blobs here!

This recipe is based on a recipe from the fantastic cookbook “Scare-cuterie” by Lori Castellon, a delightful guide for anyone who loves fun, festive and slightly eerie treats made into stunning spine-tingling charcuterie boards.

Bonus tip: This cookie dough isn’t just for spooky season.

Because it doesn’t spread, it’s perfect for cut-outs or shaped cookies any time of year — imagine hearts for Valentine’s Day, bunnies for spring or stars for the Fourth of July. When you find a dough this dependable, you’ll want to keep it in your recipe box right next to your favorite rolling pin.

WITCH FINGER COOKIES Yield: 32 cookies Total Time: 1 hr. 35 mins.
