    Witchy-Poo Fingers,According to the Canadian Living Test Kitchen, this is their most requested Hallowe’en recipe. I haven’t made them, but think I will this year. Sounds ghoulishly good!,I forgot to mention that I also used slivered almonds instead of whole one, They looked kind of creepier with the skin around the edges. I even used the ones with “chipped” ends for a more realistic look. I just made the indention with the end of a butter knife and didn’t push in so deep.
