Ingredient Notes and Substitutes

  • Vanilla Wafer Biscuits: If you can't track down these exact cookies use your imagination, look for a tall rectangular-shaped cookie with a light colour, I know in the United States they will often use nutter butters fir this recipe, I've also seen Oreos used. .
  • Candy Eyeballs: I used edible candy eyes, you can find them at supermarkets and cake decorating stores.

Step-by-step Instructions

Below are illustrated step-by-step instructions to make my Mummy Cookie Recipe, if you prefer just the written instructions then head straight to the printable recipe card below.

Step One:

Melt the white chocolate chips. I do this in the microwave. Microwave uncovered in a microwave proof bowl on medium power (50%) for 1 minute, stir. Repeat this process until the chocolate has melted. Transfer the chocolate to a piping bag.

Top Tips

Here is how you can make these mummy cookies perfectly every time!

  • I have one tip which is for filling the piping bag. Sit your piping bag in a tall glass, fold the edges of the bag over the glass, this will keep the piping bag upright and open while you fill it.
  • You don't need a piping tip, I just snip the end off of a disposable piping bag. If you are using a bag with a tip a 3mm tip is perfect.
  • Don't worry about how wiggly the white chocolate mummy bandages are, they will all look like cute mummies in the end! Because of this fact these mummy cookies are perfect for kids (even little ones) to decorate!
  • My other tip, which I can't believe I didm't think of originally, you can actually do the squiggly bandages firs and then just push on the eyes at the end, much easier!
