  3. Dip the pretzel rods in the melted candy then place on a cooling rack, waxed paper or parchment paper.
  4. Let the candied pretzel rods dry 15 seconds then press a slivered almond into the tip to resemble a fingernail.
  5. Allow the fingers to partially dry, then use a toothpick to "draw" knuckles on the fingers.
  6. Let them dry and harden completely, then place in an airtight container until ready to serve.
