Get the kids involved with these super easy Nutter Butter Mummy Cookies! No-bake Halloween treats using store-bought cookies, melted white chocolate, and candy eyes. Maximum fun, minimal mess!
Set out a wire rack over a baking sheet or line a sheet with parchment paper for the cookies to set up on.
In a microwave or a double boiler, melt the candy melts until smooth. I like to microwave at 50% and stir often to avoid any hot spots.
Using a fork or. your fingers, dip each cookie into the melted chocolate.
Tap on the edge to remove any excess.
Place on a wire rack or parchment paper.
While the chocolate is still slightly soft, add the candy eyes.
Place the leftover chocolate in a piping bag or zip top bag. Cut a small hole in the end.
Drizzle over the top to make the "bandages."
Let cool until the chocolate is set. Store until ready to eat.
Notes
Set up the wire rack or parchment paper before you start dipping.
Keep the chocolate warm in a different container because once you cut a tip in the bag, it's hard to reheat it again.
Make a few more cookies than you need to if you are taking them for a special occasion. Plus, you always need to test them for quality control :)
When drizzling the "bandages" I like to practice on the parchment paper or paper towel first to check the flow.
To make the lines easies, have some space between the cookies and start drizzling just off the cookie and then over it and a little on the other side. Then you won't have "loops" on the edges.
Don't worry about making them perfect. Mummies are supposed to be a little messy ;)
