Chocolate Fingers

Here's a way to make chocolate fingers without using a chocolate mold. Instead you use pretzel rods. The chocolate combined with the saltiness of the pretzels is a "scary" combination.


Items needed:

• Pretzel Rods
  
• White chocolate melts, chips or pieces
  
• Candy corn
  
• Thin black licorice ropes

1. Use large pretzel sticks cut in half.
   
   
2. Dip the each pretzel half in melted white chocolate (I use Wilton Vanilla candy melts) and place on wax paper.
   
   
3. Get candy corn and put one on the top end of the pretzel finger.
   
   
4. Put them in the freezer for 5 minutes, remove from freezer, take black licorice string and tie around pretzel finger.

Great idea to get the chocolate finger effect. You could also use other regular chocolate or colored melts like in the photo above by StarrGazr on Flickr. There's another "recipe" there that explains how to make the chocolate pretzel fingers shown in the picture.


For the finger nail you could use slivered almonds. If you want them colored you could dab them with a bit of food coloring for special effects and make them as spooky as you like.
