Ingredients
Scale
Cookies
- 26 Vienna Fingers vanilla cookies
Candy Coating and Decorations
- 2 bags white candy coating
- 52 Mini M&Ms
Instructions
- Melting the Candy Coating: Begin by melting the white candy coating according to the package directions. You can use a microwave, stovetop, or double boiler method ensuring the coating is smooth and lump-free.
- Coating the Cookies: Using a fork, dip each Vienna Fingers vanilla cookie into the melted white candy coating, making sure all sides are completely covered. Place the coated cookies on waxed paper to set. Repeat this process for all 26 cookies.
- Setting the Coating: Allow the candy coating to harden by refrigerating the cookies for about 30 minutes or letting them sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour until firm.
- Drizzling and Decorating: Melt additional candy coating and transfer it into a ziploc bag, then snip a small edge to create a piping tip. Drizzle the white candy in a mummy-like pattern over the cookies. While the drizzle is still wet, add two mini M&Ms on each cookie to resemble eyes.
- Final Setting: Let the decorated cookies set completely until the drizzle hardens. Once set, your mummy cookies are ready to enjoy!
Notes
- Candy Coating Tips:
– Microwave: Heat candy wafers at 50% power in 30-second increments, stirring each time until smooth.
– Stovetop: Heat over medium-low heat in a small saucepan, stirring constantly until smooth.
– Double Boiler: Heat candy coating gently over boiling water for large batches, stirring until smooth. - Store the cookies in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks once the coating is hardened.
- To freeze: let cookies solidify fully, then place in an airtight bag in the freezer for up to 4 months. Thaw to room temperature before serving.
- Prepare only as much melted coating as needed for a few cookies at a time for best results.
