Mummy Bars

by Laura

My friend Liz is incredibly creative, beautiful and smart and if that's not enough, she knows how to rock out every holiday, especially Halloween. She makes elaborate costumes for her family and really knows how to spook up easy simple treats that really put you in the mood and this year is no different. Her son is dressing up this year as a mummy and she has made some tasty, creative mummy bars to match. Here's what she did:


Liz took store-bought Oreo brownies they come ten to a box for about three dollars, then she melted white candy melts or almond bark. She put a thin layer over the almond bark over the top of the brownie to set a base for the mummy with a knife. She found some candy buttons they come on paper strips at your local craft store like Michael's and affixed them as eyes. Next she piped the melted white candy using Wilton tip #150 It's a flat one to really give the wrapped effect of a mummy. She let them set up in the fridge and then packaged them in 4" lollipop bags to give it that finished look.
      


These treats are really simple and fast but extremely festive- I wish I thought of it!

Thanks for sharing Liz!
