Chocolate Frankenstein Fingers
Spooky and delicious, Chocolate Frankenstein Fingers are the perfect baked treat for a Halloween party. Candy corn 'fingernails' top them off.
Equipment
- 1 parchment lined baking sheet
Ingredients
For cookies:
- ¾ cup butter softened
- ¾ cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 3 1-ounce squares semi-sweet baking chocolate, melted
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- Candy corn
For glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350°F.
- Combine butter and brown sugar in bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add chocolate; continue beating until well mixed. Add flour; beat at low speed until well mixed.
- Knead dough with hands until dough sticks together.
- Shape rounded teaspoonfuls of dough into 3-inch long bumpy “finger” shapes. (You will need to squeeze and pinch dough together to form fingers). Form rounded point for fingernail on one end.
- Place 2 inches apart onto parchment lined cookie sheets. Make knuckle marks in dough using toothpick, if desired. Bake 10-12 minutes or until set. Remove from oven; immediately press 1 candy corn onto pointed end. Cool 5 minutes on cookie sheets. If the candy corn doesn't adhere to the cookie, simple add it right after glazing the cookies and they will stick.
- Place cooling racks over waxed paper. Carefully move cookies from cookie sheets onto cooling racks. Cool completely.
- Combine all glaze ingredients in bowl until well mixed. Lightly brush cooled cookies with glaze.
