Here are the Halloween cookies that we will be enjoying today. “Dead” fingers, green witches finger and then the Halloween cookies decorated with royal icing. I got inspired by the recipe from Martha Stewart for the “dead” and witches fingers.
I gave both a light dusting with some cocoa powder. I think that I like the white ones the best.
My Halloween cookies turned out just as I planed. I want to share a great tip with you. When decorating cookies then let them dry underneath a work lamp. It works really good and you can pipe the final details on the cookie the same day, of course depending on what time you start flooding your cookies.
I will jump on my broomstick and fly out into the night. Happy Halloween everyone!
Happy Caking!
Louise
I love the creepy fingers! Thanks for sharing! : )
So “nice” looking. I just made theese but mine like “meltet” (flød ud) in the oven – do you know why?
Hej, beklager det sene svar. Men grunden kan være at din dej har været for blød. For at mindske at lige netop denne slags cookies flyder ud er at rulle dem meget tynde.

Are you using the same cutter for the icing and the biscuits? All your cookies look FABULOUS by the way!!
Yes, same cutter for the fondant on the cookie.

Those green fingers look greattttt! jajaja
omg that is so creepy yet creative. love it!
Those finger cookies look grossly delicious. I have to say, that’s the first time I have ever used “gross” and “delicious” to describe the same food. Nicely done!
i like the white ones too! and just like someone else asked, how do you make those finger shapes?
i also love all your other tutorials… i have been learning so much that i was inspired to start off my own website to share whatever i am learning with others 🙂
It´s dhe best! I like this!
Fy for søren, hvor er de ulækre de fingre!!! Godt lavet.
Whoah! This is my first time to see your blog posts but believe me, I really admire how you’ve come up with very nice Halloween cookies. I’m inspired with your creativity and interest in baking cookies. I hope it will not only look good but will taste even better.
Finger foods indeed! You’re very creative and artistic. Wish I had the same hands and creativity as yours.
I just LOVE the fingers, especially the first ones! As always great job and wonderful pictures! I saw you at Scandinavian cake show. It was fun to finally see the face behind these magnificent creationer!
How do you get your sugar cookies to keep their great shape? Mine always get rounded on the edges.
Hi Louise! hat’s off to you to your creativity.
Hi Lousie! Oh I love this website already, Im so glad I found it. I live in the Philippines and could not find modelling tools that I could use with fondant…can I buy clay modelling tools from craft stores instead? Would you recommend this? Thanks in advance for entertaining my question.
Hi Louise!
You have truly outdone yourself…these are fabulous!!!!
I love the green fingers! They’re the perfect shade of green – not too green. So cute! I just love Hallween. It’s one of favourite times for baking because you can get really creative. Love your cookies!
