expand your children’s palate with these gourmet witch fingers made with cheese straws, red pepper jelly, and marcona almonds for an elevated afterschool snack that always enchants!
building blocks:
(serves 2+)
cheese straws
red pepper jelly (or any other favorite fruit spread, jam works well.)
marcona almonds (we used the truffled almonds from trader joes for an elevated + salty flavor profile)
directions:
(5-10 minutes)
note: cheese straws are usually pretty fragile + break easily
choose the longer straws to get the full effect of a witch’s finger
spread red pepper jelly on one end of straw this will act as a glue for the almond
place one marcona almond on the pepper jelly with pointed end out, to look like a nail
repeat for as many “fingers” as you wish to make

we hope you love the way your kids will find
their new favorite foods when they eat from a board!
