My kids loved the Halloween Frankenstein Cakes we made. Even though they had a few more steps than the things we usually make, when they asked to make more, I was all about it! So we tried our hand at some Mummy Cake Pops that follow very similar steps!

One of the easiest ways to have fun during any holiday is to take a treat that your family already enjoys and put a spin on it.
Our Frankensteins and now our Mummies are a great example. You don’t have to spend hours in the kitchen whipping up festive treats.

How to Make Halloween Mummy Cakes
- Heat 2 cups of chocolate candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl on 50% power for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until melted. If you need more, melt 2 more cups as needed.
- Dunk your Twinkies into the melted chocolate, let any excess chocolate drop off, and place on a piece of parchment paper.
- Stick two candy eyes on the front top and carefully place a paper straw into the bottom. Push the straw almost all the way to the top and then allow your chocolate covered Twinkies to cool and harden.
- In a separate microwave-safe bowl, heat 1 cup of white candy melts on 50% power, stirring every 30 seconds until melted.
- Pour your white chocolate into a decorating bag and cut a small tip off the end.
- Use the bag to drizzle the white chocolate over the chocolate covered twinkie using a back and forth motion.
- Let cool and enjoy your Mummy Twinkies!
Making Mummy Cake Pops is a kid-friendly activity for kids once they’re a bit older.
An adult should melt the chocolate and the dip the snack cakes. But with help, Carrigan can do the decorating bag full of white chocolate and Weston can do it all on his own!
