Stay Awake

1 Place all ingredients except the almonds in a blender and process until the mixture comes together.

2 Place mixture in a bowl and use dampened hands to form the mixture into 16 even-sized balls. Roll out into finger shapes using the palm of your hand, bending each slightly to resemble a finger. Place on the baking tray. Repeat with all the balls to get 16 fingers.

3 Add a flaked almond to the tip of each finger to make a finger nail. Chill for at least 1 hour before serving. Keep chilled until serving.

4 Serve in a shallow bowl where the fingers can be bent over the rim of the bowl.
