Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices White bread
- 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
- 4 pieces Ham slices
- 1 unit Cucumber
- 1 unit Red bell pepper
- 4 pieces Black olives
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Ketchup
Instructions
Spread cream cheese evenly onto 4 slices of white bread. Set aside the remaining bread slices for topping.
Top each cream cheese layer with a ham slice, trimming the edges if needed so the ham doesn't hang over the bread.
Thinly slice the cucumber into strips and layer them on top of the ham slices for a bit of crunch.
Place the remaining 4 slices of bread on top to create sandwiches.
Cut each sandwich into 3 long, finger-shaped strips, resembling creepy fingers.
Slice the red bell pepper into small pieces to serve as sharp, pointed 'fingernails'.
Use a small dab of cream cheese on one end of each sandwich strip to stick the red bell pepper pieces, creating the nail tip.
Cut the black olives into thin rings and use them to make grooves on the finger sandwich for added 'knuckle' detail.
Mix mayonnaise and ketchup together to form a 'bloody' dipping sauce and serve alongside the sandwiches for effect.
Arrange the finger sandwiches on a platter and serve immediately for a spooky Halloween treat!
