Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 6 string cheese sticks
  • 12 almond slices
  • 2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce, or to taste

 

 

Directions

  1. Round off the ends of each cheese stick with a paring knife to resemble a fingertip. Roughly tear each cheese stick in half to form two torn-off “fingers”.

  2. Shave off a piece of each cheese “fingertip” to form a nail bed; place an almond slice on the “nail bed” to form a “fingernail”.

  3. Cut a few shallow lines in center of each “finger” to form knuckle marks.

  4. Pour several drops of hot sauce into small pools of “blood” on a serving plate. Dip torn ends of the cheese fingers into “blood” to resemble bloody fingers. Lay each “finger” in its own pool of “blood”.
