Party Recipes - Ghoul Fingers

Spooky, spicy and with ONLY three ingredients - VERY easy to make!

What You Need:

• Frozen Taquitos
• Red Pepper
• Refried Beans
• Sharp Knife
• Cutting Board
• Baking Sheet
• Fun & Spooky Platter

How To Make Them:

1. Cut the red pepper into long skinny fingernail shapes.
2. On the backside of each fingernail, cut away excess meat until it is less than ½ inch thick. (The thinner you make them, the more they will curl when cooked.)
3. Using refried beans as a paste, ‘glue’ a fingernail to the end of each taquito.
4. Place on a baking sheet and cook according to the cooking instructions on the taquito box. For best results, use the conventional oven directions.
5. When done, transfer to a fun & spooky platter and serve.

Suggestions:

• These can easily be made ahead of time and stored for up to 4 hours in a refrigerator. Reduce the overall cooking time by 2-3 minutes if they are partially thawed.
• Serve with salsa, sour cream, chili con queso in festive serving dishes, and the Tangled Web Dip, also found in the 101 Spooktacular Halloween Party Ideas book.

Enjoy!
