Witch Fingers

These WITCH FINGERS are really easy to make and they definitely don't need to be perfect; the imperfections make them extra CREEPY .  A great bake to make with kids because of this.  You can use store bought Sugar Cookie dough and tint it with green food coloring or follow my Sugar Cookie Recipe .  A dough without rising agent is best to keep the definition in the knuckles and prevent the cookies from puffing up in the oven.  Once you have prepared your dough, roll out to about 1/4" thickness and cut into finger sized rectangles.  Then shape using your hands.  Make it pointy at the top of the finger and a little fatter where you want your knuckle. Using the tip of a spoon or small spatula, make three indents for the knuckles.  Some sliced almonds added before baking and a touch of seedless mixed berry jam after the cookies have cooled complete the SPOOKY snacks.  HAPPY HAUNTING! 🦇  

Maiden Voyage...taking this blog for a spin.

Let me start by introducing myself.  My name is Kristen D. and I am a stay at home mom of three little boys.  They keep me extremely busy and in order to maintain some sort of sanity we try to get creative and have fun.  IF we didn't channel this my children would choose to glue their behinds to the couch every minute of every day.  A lot of the time getting creative means baking something new, making a craft or a new kind of slime.  And when they go to bed my creativity is channeled into shaking up some cocktails.

I was not gifted with traditional artistic talent like painting or drawing, but use the creativity I do have for baking and making.  When I am working on a more complicated recipe or project, I zone out and it is like meditating.  It relaxes me and helps me clear my mind of whatever else is going on in my world.
