Fiendish sausage fingers
9 of 10

Fiendish sausage fingers

These pastry fingers make a fiendishly good snack at any Halloween party and are super-easy to make. Kids will be pleasantly surprised when they take a bite and discover a delicious sausage-filled centre.

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Unroll the pastry and use a rolling pin to shape into a longer rectangle (about 25cm x 48cm). Halve lengthways, then cut each length into 6 rectangles.
  2. Roll the pieces of pastry around the chipolatas, pressing together at one end to create a fingertip shape. Use a sharp knife to mark lines in each finger.
  3. Brush each finger with the egg wash and press a halved black olive 'fingernail' onto the tip. Lay on a tray lined with nonstick paper. Sprinkle over the grated Parmesan and bake for 15-20 mins, until golden. Brush the base of the fingers with tomato ketchup 'blood' to serve.
