Description
Start by mixing up a batch of sugar cookies (recipe below). Or, buy premixed cookie dough in the refrigerated section of your grocery store. Roll them out into a thin line, and shape into fingers. Apply an almond shard fingernail and bake as directed. Brush with cocoa powder or cinnamon to give the appearance of being dirty!
