Start by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper. This is where your mummy cookies will rest after you’ve dressed them up. Make sure your Nutter Butter cookies and candy eyes are within easy reach; you don’t want to be scrambling around when the chocolate starts to set!

In a microwave-safe glass bowl, pour in your white candy melts. Heat them on a defrost setting for about one minute. Give them a good stir. If you see any lumps, continue heating in shorter 15-second intervals, stirring in between, until you achieve a smooth consistency. Avoid overheating, as this can cause the chocolate to seize.

Once your candy melts are ready, it’s cookie-dipping time! One by one, dip a Nutter Butter cookie into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s fully coated. Use a fork to lift the cookie out, letting any excess chocolate drip back into the bowl. Place the dipped cookie gently onto the parchment paper.

While the chocolate is still soft and warm, press two candy eyes onto the upper half of each cookie. This step is essential for giving your mummies their personality—don’t skip it!

In a zip-top bag, place ½ cup of white candy melts and add 1 to 2 teaspoons of coconut oil; this will give your drizzle a beautiful sheen. Microwave the bag for approximately 30 seconds on defrost. Squeeze the bag to mix everything together. If needed, give it another short burst in the microwave.

Snip off a tiny corner of the bag and drizzle this melted mixture over the cookies in a back-and-forth motion, resembling the wrappings of a mummy.

Now, all that’s left is to allow your cookies to sit at room temperature until the chocolate hardens, which can take anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes depending on the environment.
