Michele and I just returned from our romantic Sonoma 10th anniversary get-way, but before I left I filmed this very cool (and very gross) "severed fingers" Halloween treat. I got the idea from the blog, Our Best Bites, and decided to tweak it a little bit and add some hot sauce "blood" to the torn appendages.
This would make quite an eye-catching appetizer tray for your upcoming Halloween party -- come on, what kid wouldn't think you were the coolest parent ever, if you made some of these? Be sure to tear the cheese sticks in half as irregularly as possible, as this really gives it that stomach-turning realism.
This video recipe will finally give you hardcore food snobs (you know who you are!) a chance to eat string cheese. You know you've wanted to for so long, but were afraid you would be seen with it at the market and not have a decent excuse -- problem solved. Enjoy!

This actually startled me.
btw, this is the second time it's happened, but when I click on "comments" I get a bunch of popup windows redirecting me to something funky. Hacked recently?
haven't seen anything weird, that's never happened to me.
That effect is sooo cheesy.
Comments working fine, as far as I can tell.
We're going to a potluck dinner party for Halloween. Thanks again, Chef John, for keeping me on the "cutting edge" of what to bring, with such a nail biting scary treat.
These are puns only a "Mummy" could love!
a perfect finger-food for the party...
Maybe can you make a brain-shaped Lecter key lime pie, preferably colored in glistering shades of greyish-pink?
Good one-liner, Milkshake! Mummy likes it!
hahahaha, oh man. Chef John you are too much
Ketchup?
Why not marinara sauce?
When I clicked comment I got a popup too. Then I finally got the comment box.
I love this video. Great Halloween food. I eat cheese sticks all the time anyway.
Now I'll have something spookier for my halloween party than my puffless cheese puffs.
haha! If it makes you feel any better, I've gotten a few emails telling me how great the puffs turned out. ;-)
OMG that looked so scary, Thank u Chef John!!! I love ur recipes.
I can just imagine the reaction this will get from my niece-who's also crazy about cheese as I am. They look so real...I love it!
