the best spooky cookies
Are you looking for a fun, easy treat to make with your kids for Halloween? These cookies are incredibly easy to make and only use 3 ingredients.
They're simple for the kids to make, fun, cute, and spooky. Your kids will love making these and the mess is minimal.
ingredients
- Milano cookies - you can also use any long, oval shaped cookie that you like
- Almond bark - I find that almond bark works best, but you can also use white chocolate
- Mini candy eyes - the smallest ones work best and fit on the cookies well
how to make halloween cookies
Detailed instructions and measurements to make mummy cookies are listed in the recipe card at the bottom of this page.
- Add the almond bark to a microwave safe bowl. Melt in the microwave (or double boiler) just until smooth. Be careful not to overheat to avoid clumping.
- Take each cookie and dip them ¾ of the way down and place on a parchment lined sheet.
- While the almond bark is still wet, place two eyes on each of the cookies in the upper ¼ of the almond bark.
- While the cookies are setting, pour the remaining melted almond bark into a zip top bag. I find it easiest to place the bag in a cup to hold it up.
- Snip a small corner of the bag and drizzle the almond bark over the cookies going side to side. I find that they look best when you get close to the eyes (and sometimes go slightly over) rather than skipping them completely.
- Allow the cookies to cool and set completely before serving.
tips, tricks and faqs
Don't overheat the almond bark. When almond bark gets overheated, it begins to clump and get hard. You want to heat it just until it begins to get smooth.
If there are still small pieces in the bowl, stir the heated mixture around until they melt. Don't put it in the microwave for additional time.
You can use any cookie that is a long oval shape.
Yes, you can use melted white chocolate in place of almond bark. I would recommend adding a little bit of coconut oil to help with the hardening.
how to store leftover mummy cookies
Once the almond bark has completely set on the mummy cookies, store the cookies in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
