Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Preheat oven to 325?F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease baking sheets.

* Step 2

Combine the butter, sugar, egg, almond extract, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl. Beat together with an electric mixer; gradually add the flour, baking powder, and salt, continually beating; refrigerate 20 to 30 minutes.

* Step 3

Remove dough from refrigerator in small amounts. Scoop 1 heaping teaspoon at a time onto a piece of waxed paper. Use the waxed paper to roll the dough into a thin finger-shaped cookie.

* Step 4

Press one almond into one end of each cookie to give the appearance of a long fingernail.

* Step 5

Squeeze cookie near the tip and again near the center of each to give the impression of knuckles.

* Step 6

You can also cut into the dough with a sharp knife at the same points to help give a more finger-like appearance.

* Step 7

Arrange the shaped cookies on the baking sheets.

* Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven until the cookies are slightly golden in color, 20 to 25 minutes.

* Step 9

Remove the almond from the end of each cookie; squeeze a small amount of red decorating gel into the cavity; replace the almond to cause the gel to ooze out around the tip of the cookie.
