  • Combine your cherries, lemon juice, and syrup over stove top until bubbling. Stir in starch until dissolved and set aside to thicken
  • Make & roll out your pie crust. Place your hand or child's hand on the dough and use a butter knife to cut the shape
  • Place your cherry filling in the palm on the hands, then place another hand overtop. Don't stress if they're not identical hands. Work with the dough to press down around the edges so filling doesn't leak out

  • Poke a few holes in the top
  • Bake at 425 for 15 minutes, until top is golden
  • Let cool completely, cut off fingers for a creepy look
