Witch Finger Pretzel Sticks

Items needed
1 bag Pretzel Rods
1 (12-ounce) bag Green Candy Melts or Wafers
Vegetable Oil
Sliced Almonds
Wax Paper
Wire Rack

Place a sheet of wax paper under a wire rack. Lay out a couple of sheets of additional wax paper. Pour sliced almonds in a small bowl, set aside. In a small and narrow bowl, heat half a bag of wafers along with 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until completely melted. Tilt bowl and dip half of the pretzel rod down in the melted candy, turning to coat. Using your finger, run along the back of the pretzel to remove excess melted candy, then place on the wire rack. Place a sliced almond at the tip of each pretzel for a fingernail and let sit for a couple of seconds on the rack so that more candy drips off, then remove and run finger along back of pretzel again to smooth out candy coating. Place on a clean sheet of wax paper to harden.

*Use 1 teaspoon vegetable oil along with each half bag of wafers. Have damp towels handy while dipping pretzels. You will need to wipe the excess melted candy off of your fingers.
