These cute and simple Mummy Oreos are super spooky and they make the perfect Halloween Class Treats, or office treats. These Halloween Treats use just a few ingredients and look really cute.
It's so simple to make these festive cookies, you could take the basic concept of dipping the Oreo Cookies, and decorate for any holiday.
I love this spooky season, Halloween parties are always my favorite, I love to get festive and dress up (my husband hates it, lol).

Recipe walkthrough: Instructions
This is an overview of the recipe steps. For more detailed instructions visit the recipe card at the bottom of this post (for the full recipe).
- Step 1: Heat the candy melts in a small microwave-safe bowl, in 20-30 second intervals until melted to the right consistency to dip.
- Step 2: Tap the cookies then dip into the coating mix, half way.
- Step 3: Lay out on a baking sheet with wax paper to dry. (Speed up the process by placing the baking sheet in the refrigerator).
- Step 4: Freshen up the coating mix again then dip the other side of the Oreo mummies to completely coat. Lay out on the baking sheet again.
- Step 5: While the cookies are still setting, place the candy eyes on each cookie.
- Step 6: Add the remaining candy coating to a piping bag (pastry bag) and snip the corner (or use a small tip). Pipe the 'bandages' over the cookies.
- Step 7: Allow the coating to set before serving.
Hint: Make sure to tap the cookies before you dip them into the coating. It's a great way avoid you getting crumbs in the coating mix.
Recipe variations and substitute ideas
- White Chocolate - instead of white candy wafers use melted chocolate.
- Coconut Oil - add a little to the candy melts, or chocolate to thin it a little.
- Parchment Paper - you could use this instead of the wax paper.
- White Almond Bark - instead of the candy melts. This works great too.

How to store leftovers
Once the Mummy Oreos have hardened you can store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
Mel's kitchen notes
Save on the candy melts, don't dip the cookies and just apply the eyes using a dab of the melted candy on the back of the eyes to attach to the cookies then pipe the 'bandages' over the dark cookies. It can give a different look with the same idea.
Frequently asked questions: FAQs
If you place the baking sheet into the refrigerator for a little while it will speed up the setting time.
You could use any cookie you like. Nutter Butter looks great!
