How to Make Witches Fingers

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Cut chicken drumsticks into finger shapes, leaving the bone slightly exposed at the end for a realistic look.
  3. In a bowl, combine melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  4. Dip each chicken finger into the butter mixture, ensuring they are fully coated.
  5. Place the chicken fingers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown.
  7. While the chicken is baking, prepare the almond 'fingernails'. Slightly toast the sliced almonds in a dry pan for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  8. Once the chicken is cooked, carefully press a sliced almond onto the end of each bone to create a spooky fingernail effect.
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy your spooky Halloween treat!
