Have you ever ate Witches Fingers? Some have quite a bite but when prepared properly they’re really quite tasty. Here’s a fun Halloween food idea for the kids before they head out to go trick-or-treating to put them in the mood.
No…we would never condone chopping the fingers off the town Witch, but with only a few ingredients you can make your own Spooky Witches Fingers.
These are so kid friendly, they’ll love making these as much as eating them. This might be one case when it’s okay to point!
Use refrigerated breadsticks, they are the perfect size. I imagine that Witches fingers are a little longer and crooked. Just be sure to supervise when the kids are using sharp utensils, no need for a trip to the emergency room.
The kids will be shaking with anticipation before they even get their hands on these. What a fun Halloween food idea for the kids after school or what kid wouldn’t appreciate having a hot snack after they go Trick-or-Treating.

Yikes, those are super creepy! Perfect for Halloween 🙂
Thanks Marie, I’m glad you like them.
We had these for halloween dinner tonight and we all loved them. My breadsticks didn’t rise so I just made a pizza sandwich. I made salami and diced chicken fingers and they were just yummy. We also did a witches laugh contest to go along with our fingers! I won! 🙂
Thanks for making our dinner so fun!!
Oh that’s awesome Lynaia! How fun…a witches laugh contest! A memory your family will keep and probably continue in the years to come.
