ADORABLE HALLOWEEN MUMMY COOKIES

Are you looking for an easy Halloween treat? Or maybe you want to decorate Halloween cookies, but you don’t want to spend hours decorating cookies?

These fun mummy cookies are so quick to decorate!

I made these for our Monster Mash Halloween Bash and seriously, I had 12 of these decorated in under 5 minutes!

Which means that these cookies are a great option for any Halloween party, classroom party, or just a fun Halloween lunch box idea.

WHAT YOU NEED:

sugar cookies (store-bought or use our favorite sugar cookie recipe)
round cookie cutters
white buttercream frosting
cake decorating bags for frosting
flat decorator’s tip
candy eyes

DIRECTIONS

1) Cut your favorite sugar cookie dough into circles and bake. Let cool.

2) Secure a flat cake decorating tip onto a piping bag. Then fill the bag with your favorite buttercream frosting.

3) Make stripes of frosting onto each cookie in various directions, making a mummy wrapping.

4) Finish by sticking 2 candy eyes on top.

5) Store in an air-tight container up to a few days until you are ready to eat.
