Ingredients
What do you need to make mummy cookies for Halloween? Three simple ingredients!
- 15 Oreo sandwich cookies
- 2 cups white chocolate candy melts
- 1 package candy eyeballs
See the printable recipe card below for the full recipe, detailed instructions and additional notes.
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper and set aside.
- Place the white chocoalte in the microwave and heat according to the package instructions. Stir and continue heating in 15 second intervals until the chocolate is smooth and melted.
- Place an Oreo cookie on a fork and dip it into the chocolate, covering the entire cookie. Lift the cookie from the chocolate and allow the excess white chocolate to drip off. Wipe the extra chocolate off the back of the cookie using the edge of the bowl.
- Place the dipped Oreos onto the cookie sheet and add two candy eyes to each cookie. Continue until all Oreos are dipped and have eyes.
- Microwave any remaining melted chocolate (add more chocolate melts if necessary) until it is smooth. Pour the melted chocolate into a disposable piping bag and twist the top closed.
- Use scissors to snip off of the tip of the piping bag so the chocolate is piped in a thin line for the mummy bandages.
- Pipe lines of chocolate in multiple directions across the top of the cookies, avoiding the eyes.
- Place the cookies in the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set. Remove the excess chocolate from around the cookies, place on a plate and serve.
Substitutions
We’ve got a few ways that you can adjust this recipe to fit what you have on hand!
- Oreos – Use your favorite flavor of Oreos, Golden Oreos or even double stuff Oreos.
- Candy eyes – If you can’t find candy eyes, you can use mini chocolate chips, round candy sprinkles or even piped black icing.
- White chocolate – We used white candy melts, but you can use white almond bark or any other white/vanilla candy coating for these white chocolate Oreo mummies.
Variations
If you want to get creative, try these fun variations.
- Make Oreo mummy pops – Before dipping the Oreos, insert a popsicle stick or lollipop stick into the center of the cookie. Then, dip the cookie, add the eyes and drizzle the mummy wrapping. These mummy Oreo pops would make cute Halloween party favors for your Halloween parties.
- Create Oreo ghosts – If you don’t add the white chocolate drizzle, you’ve got Oreo ghosts!
- More Halloween Oreos – Change the color of the candy wafers/candy melts to make different Halloween Oreos. Green candy melts can become witches or Frankenstein. Orange candy melts can transform Oreos into jack-o-lanterns. Milk chocolate melts and brown sprinkles are perfect to make Oreo werewolves.
Storage
Store any leftover Oreo mummy cookies in a zip-top bag or airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer. Store in the fridge for 1-2 weeks and up to one month in the freezer. Thaw frozen cookies in the refrigerator before eating.

Recipe
Mummy Oreos
Ingredients
- 15 Oreo cookies
- 2 cups white chocolate melts
- 1 package candy eyes
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper and set aside.
- Place the white chocolate in the microwave and heat according to package instructions. Stir and continue heating in 15 second intervals until chocolate is smooth and melted.

- Place the cookies in the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set. Remove the excess chocolate from around the cookies, place on a plate and serve.
Notes
- This recipe is for 15 mummy Oreos, but if you want to use all of the cookies in the package, you will need to purchase more white chocolate melts and candy eyes.
- The black pupils on the candy eyes smudge easily, so I prefer to handle them with tweezers or tongs.
- If you don’t have a piping bag, you can use a ziploc bag or even a spoon to drizzle the mummy bandages.
- If you can’t find the candy eyes at the grocery store, try your local Walmart, the baking aisle of the craft store or Amazon.
