Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 0.75 cups confectioners' sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup ground pecans
• 50 almonds

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. 2 Beat butter and sugar together using an electric mixer until fluffy. Blend in vanilla extract and salt. Mix in flour and ground pecans. Shape about 1 tablespoon of dough into a finger, about 3 inches long and 3/4 inch wide. Repeat with remaining dough to form about 50 fingers total.
3. 3 Place fingers 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet; they will expand a little while baking. Stick an almond 'nail' onto the end of each finger. Lightly score some 'knuckles' into the centers using a knife.
4. 4 Bake in the preheated oven until set and very lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Let cool.
