7 tbsp cold butter
>
1/4 cup sugar

Steps
1
Divide the egg. Sift the flour into a bowl and add the butter in cubes, sugar, egg white and salt.
2
Knead until a cohesive dough forms and shape into a ball. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and leave for 30 min. to chill in the refrigerator.
3
Preheat the oven to 350° F.
4
Use a knife to cut dough into 20 pieces and shape each into a finger.
5
Beat the egg yolk and brush on each finger. Push an almond nail into the end of each finger cookie. Bake for 12-15 min. or until golden brown.
6
Allow 30 min. to cool. Use the frosting gel to create a bloody edge around the cuticle
Tips
Tip: If you want extra thin witch fingers? Divide the dough into 30 portions instead of 20.
