Finger Cookies

• 1 Cup Butter
• 3/4 Cup Sugar
• 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 1/2 Teaspoon Salt
• 1 3/4 Cups Flour
• 1 Cup Pecans – Ground
• Red Food Coloring
• Almonds – Blanched Or Slivered

Directions

Preheat oven to 300°. Beat butter and sugar in a bowl of a heavy-duty mixer until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and salt. Add flour, 1/4 cup at a time, blending after each addition. Stir in pecans. Dough will be heavy.

Using 1 Tablespoon of dough per cookie, shape dough into finger shapes. Place cookies on parchment paper lined cookie sheets. Using a kinfe, gently score each finger a few times across the center and near the top to resemble knuckles. Paint almonds with food coloring and press into the top of the cookie to resemble a fingernail.

Bake for 25 minutes or until lightly browned.
