Halloween Recipe: Zombie Fingers

Halloween Recipe: Zombie Fingers

These Zombie Fingers biscuits are perfect for a Halloween table. A crunchy, sugar-free classic spooky treat by Jelena Fairweather is made of tender almond-flavoured cookie dough, shaped into fingers and topped with a raspberry jam bloody fingernail for a creepy finishing touch!

Ingredients

  • 120g soft room temperature butter  
  • 100g Natvia Synbiotic Sweetener (UK) / Natvia Gut Activated Sweetener (AU)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp almond extract (use vanilla if you don't like almond) 
  • 3.5 cups flour
  • 3/4cup almond flour
  • 1 pinch salt 

Recipe Method

  1. Mix flour, almond flour and salt in a bowl and set aside. 
  2. Combine the butter and sweetener in the bowl of a large stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat them together on medium speed for about 1 minute, until fluffy and well-combined. 
  3. Add the egg and almond extract, mixing until combined and forming a paste-like texture. 
  4. Dough must be soft and sticky. Take a walnut-sized ball of dough and roll it into a finger shape. Press in the middle and all some likes with a toothpick to create a realistic effect. 
  5. Bake at 180°C for 10 minutes or until lightly golden. 
  6. Once the disk is cooled, add some mashed raspberries to the top of the filter to create a nail effect. Enjoy!
