Fun on a Budget


List of Ingredients




1 cup butter, softened
1 cup icing sugar
1 egg
1 tsp almond extract
1 tsp vanilla
2 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
3/4 cup whole blanched almonds
1 tube red decorator gel


Recipe



In bowl beat together butter, sugar, egg, almond extract and vanilla; beat
in flour; baking powder and salt. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Working with one-quarter of the dough at a time and keeping remaining dough
refrigerated, roll heaping teaspoons full of dough into finger shape for
each cookie. Press almond firmly into one end for nail. Squeeze in center to
create knuckle shape. Using a paring knife make slashes in several places to
form knuckle. Place on lightly greased cookie sheet in 325 degree over for
20-25 minutes or until pale or golden. Let cool for three minutes. Lift up
almond; squeeze red decorator gel onto nail bed and press almond back in
place so gel oozes out from underneath. Remove from cookie sheet and let
cool. Repeat with remaining dough. Makes about 5 doz fingers!
