For everyone who liked this recipe please note that I made a mistake on the number of servings & only just realised it. The recipe makes about 50 -60 fingers. I have changed it now. Sorry about that.


Gosh, just yesterday I submitted my recipe for "monster fingers", then was looking on your site and saw your witches fingers that look just like my cookies, but the recipe is different. These really are fun!
