Finger Stakes

Before I get started blowing sprinkler lines and assisting in biology and chemistry labs, I needed to make something special for my wife's Halloween party at work. So, I decided that the easiest (Yep, I'm lazy) thing to do, would be to make my Cheesy Bread and try and make them look like fingers.

 What you need:

• Cheesy bread recipe
• A batch of my Garlic Sauce
• Olives and cut them into fourths (These will become the finger nails)
• Red food dye

Putting it together:

• Make a batch of the garlic sauce
• When that is made, reserve about 1/4 of the sauce and add 2 Tbsp of red food coloring to it (This will make the sauce appear to look like blood)
• Make the cheesy bread recipe
• Once the bread sticks have risen and are ready to have the garlic sauce applied,  cut a slit in the end of each bread stick  and placed one of the olive slices
• Slather each one with the regular garlic sauce
• Cover with cheese
• Using the garlic sauce with the red food dye, paint the end of the bread stick (the one without the olive)
• Bake at 425° for 12-15 minutes

Here they are before being covered with cheese... 

Ready for the oven... 

Once baked and cooled, I placed a stick (stake) up the middle of each one, which is why I can call them: Finger Stakes :-)

Boxed-up and ready to go...
