Creepy and delicious, the perfect spooky season dessert.
Ingredients
- 2 packages ready-made pie crust
- 1 ½ cups deep red Cactus Pears, small dice
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- While oven is preheating, trace your hand with a toothpick and cut out four hands from pie crust and place on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Brush beaten egg over edges and fingers of one dough hand. Spoon half of pie filling (diced cactus fruit tossed with sugar) in center of one hand.
- Top with second dough hand, pressing edges of hands together with a fork. Use a paring knife to create knuckle and fingernail details as desired. Make it look as realistic as you can handle, then brush surface with lightly beaten egg. Repeat for second hand.
- Bake until golden brown, about 16 to 18 minutes. Note that filling may ooze slightly — the more blood effect the better. Cool on the pan for 10 minutes before serving. Chop in half and serve.
