Pretense witch fingers are a fun and spooky treat perfect for Halloween parties or themed events. These cookies are shaped like long, slender fingers and decorated to resemble the creepy nails of a witch. The process of making pretense witch fingers involves a few simple steps. First, prepare the cookie dough by combining butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and flour in a mixing bowl. Mix the ingredients until a smooth dough forms. Refrigerate the dough for at least an hour to allow it to firm up.
The ingredient list for these Halloween pretzel sticks is short, and there is a LOT of wiggle room. You can keep it simple or you can level up your pieces. It’s all up to you, your time limit, whether or not you have little/medium/big helpers, and what kind of ingredients you may or may not already have.

Refrigerate the dough for at least an hour to allow it to firm up. Once the dough is chilled, take a small portion and roll it into a thin, long sausage shape. Use your fingers to create slight indentations along the length of the dough to mimic the appearance of knuckles.
Frankie and the Witch Fingers drop psych-pop nugget “6,000 Horns” — listen
Frankie and the Witch Fingers are a swift kick in the ass for garage psych. Their hooks are sharper, the production isn’t vintage for the sake of vintage, and the recorded material captures the energy of the band’s eccentric live performances perfectly. That’s exactly what they do once again on their new album, Heavy Roller, due out July 29th via Permanent Records.
Today, the Los Angeles psych rockers have teased the new album with its catchy lead single, “6,000 Horns”. The track recalls the kinetic unpredictability of Magical Mystery Tour, the raucousness of the Flamin Groovies, and the organized chaos of Captain Beefheart. (Even the Heavy Roller record sleeve screams Safe as Milk vibes). Guitars and organs bounce and dance, while Dylan Sizemore’s vocals drift away to the land of golden power-pop melodies. It’s a track that you think might go one way, but veers another — the loud and soft dynamics arranged for maximum shock and awe, like progressive rock without the heady pretense and overplaying.

Gently press one end to flatten it slightly, creating a tapered shape resembling a finger. Repeat this process for the remaining dough, placing the fingers on a lined baking sheet. To make the cookies look like witch fingers, you can add almond slices or whole almonds as the nails. Press the almond slices into the flattened end of each finger, creating a nail-like appearance. If using whole almonds, gently press them into the dough to resemble long, witchy nails. Bake the pretense witch fingers in a preheated oven until golden brown. The baking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fingers, so keep a close eye on them to prevent over-browning. Once baked, allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack. For an extra eerie touch, you can also add some red food coloring or raspberry jam along the tips of the fingers to simulate blood or gruesome wounds. This will further enhance the spooky appearance of the cookies. Pretense witch fingers are a fantastic addition to any Halloween spread or themed party. They have a hauntingly delicious taste and are sure to be a hit with both kids and adults. Whether enjoyed as a standalone treat or served alongside other Halloween goodies, these cookies are bound to leave a lasting impression. So, get into the spooky spirit and give these pretense witch fingers a try!.
Reviews for "Halloween Party Must-Have: Pretense Witch Fingers Recipe"
1. Jane - 2 stars
I was really disappointed with "Pretense Witch Fingers". The description made it sound like a thrilling and suspenseful story, but it was anything but. The plot was weak and predictable, and the characters felt completely one-dimensional. I couldn't connect with any of them, and their actions didn't make sense most of the time. Overall, it was a letdown and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for a gripping read.
2. Mark - 1 star
"Pretense Witch Fingers" was a complete waste of my time. The writing was incredibly pretentious and trying way too hard to be clever. The author seemed more interested in showing off their vocabulary than actually telling an engaging story. The narrative was disjointed and confusing, with random jumps and poorly developed subplots. It felt like a jumbled mess, and I had no desire to finish it. Save yourself the trouble and skip this book.
3. Emily - 2 stars
I had high hopes for "Pretense Witch Fingers" based on the intriguing title and unique cover art, but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The pacing was incredibly slow, and there were long parts of the book where nothing seemed to happen. The dialogue was stilted and unnatural, making it difficult to feel invested in the conversations between the characters. The overall concept had potential, but it was poorly executed, leaving me disappointed and unimpressed.
