Spooky Pastillas Fingers (Easy No-Bake Recipe)
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups milk powder
- ½ cup granulated sugar plus more for rolling
- 4-5 tablespoons milk
- Almond slivers or sliced almonds
- Crushed Oreo cookies for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Add milk powder and sugar to a bowl. Add the milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until a soft, moldable dough forms. You may not need all 5 tablespoons.
- Cover and refrigerate the mixture for about 30 minutes to firm up.
- Take a spoonful of the mixture and roll it in granulated sugar. Shape it into a log that resembles a finger. Make sets of five in different sizes to form full hands. If the mixture gets sticky, rub a little sugar on your hands.
- Use a toothpick to etch small lines across the finger to create knuckle creases.
- Optional: For more definition, lightly darken the creases with an edible marker.
- Use almond slivers for the fingernails, or slice whole almonds yourself. Color the almonds with an edible marker for creepier nails.
- Press one almond into the tip of each finger to create the nail.
- Serve the pastillas fingers on a bed of crushed Oreo cookies for an extra-spooky presentation. Happy Halloween!
