These witch finger cookies are not only fun to make, but they're also eggless for those with allergies or dietary restrictions. With a touch of red food coloring and sliced almonds, these cookies will look just like creepy witch fingers.
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Food coloring of your choice
Step 1: Prepare the dough
To start, preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla extract and continue to beat until well combined. Slowly add in the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until a soft dough forms.
Step 2: Add some color
To make your Halloween cutout cookies more festive, add in some food coloring of your choice to the dough. You can use traditional Halloween colors like orange, black, and purple, or get creative with any colors you desire. Knead the dough until the color is evenly distributed.
Step 3: Roll out the dough
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use Halloween-themed cookie cutters to cut out your desired shapes. Place the cutouts onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 4: Bake and decorate
Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, decorate your cookies with icing, sprinkles, or any other spooky decorations you desire.
These Halloween cutout cookies are not only delicious, but they also make for a fun and creative activity for the whole family. So why not add them to your Halloween celebration this year?
