📌Melting Chocolate Tip: If the candy coating is too thick, you can add two teaspoons of vegetable shortening to help thin out the candy but do not add any other type of liquid as the candy will seize and harden...trust me on this one, okay?

Step-by-Step Directions

• Step 1: Melt the candy coating according to package directions giving special care not to overheat the candy.
• Step 2: Resting the cookie on a fork, spoon candy coating over the cookie and then tap the fork against the side of your bowl to remove excess candy coating.

• Step 3: Add the candy eyeballs while the candy is still wet.
• Step 4: Place the cookies on waxed paper to dry.

How to Decorate Halloween Cookies

• Pour remaining candy coating into a disposable piping bag.
• Snip the end of the piping bag and drizzle each cookie with candy coating to form the straps of the mummy material.
• Allow candy coating to harden. If necessary, cut any excessive candy coating that overlapped the edge of each cracker using a sharp knife.

Tips for Making Nutter Butter Mummies

• If you don't have googly candy eyes on hand or don't want to spend the money, chocolate chips work great too.
• Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
• Placing in the refrigerator may cause the cookie to soften.
