Make It

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Step 2

Cut squares of dough apart. Sprinkle surface of work area lightly with flour. Roll each piece of dough into 1/2-inch ropes, 3 to 4 inches long. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bend each rope slightly to create crooked fingers, if desired. Refrigerate for 10 minutes.

Step 3

While cookie dough is chilling, make 40 candy fingernails. Pinch off small pieces of taffy; stretch and form into pointy fingernails. Set aside.

Step 4

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until light golden brown. Remove baking sheets to wire racks. While cookie fingers are on the baking sheets and still warm, carefully place a fingernail on end of each cookie finger. Let stand for 2 minutes; remove to racks to cool completely. Nails will warm and stick to the cookie fingers. Store in tightly covered container.

NOTE:

For whole hand look, take 3 squares of dough and form a ball. Flatten to roughly 1/2-inch height. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes; remove to racks to cool completely. Place fingers and thumb under “palm” of hand!
