Chocolate Mummy Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, beat butter, powdered sugar and vanilla with electric mixer on medium speed about 2 minutes or until creamy. On low speed, beat in flour, cocoa and coffee granules 1 to 2 minutes or until well mixed. Divide dough into 2 balls; press each to form disk. Wrap each disk in plastic wrap; freeze 10 minutes.
• On lightly floured surface, roll 1 dough disk at a time until 1/8 inch thick. Cut with 5-inch gingerbread boy cutter. On ungreased cookie sheets, place cutouts 1 inch apart. Reroll and cut any remaining dough. Bake 9 to 10 minutes or until set. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Place white baking chips in small resealable freezer plastic bag; seal bag. Microwave on High 30 seconds. Turn bag over; microwave 15 seconds longer until chips are softened. Squeeze bag until mixture is smooth. (If necessary, microwave 10 seconds longer or until chips are completely melted and mixture is smooth.)
• Cut very small tip from one corner of bag. Squeeze bag to drizzle melted chips over cookies for mummy wrapping. Add 2 baking bits to each cookie for eyes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. In medium bowl, stir together cookie mix and cocoa. Add butter and egg; stir until soft dough forms.
• On floured surface, roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut with 5-inch gingerbread man cutter. On ungreased cookie sheet, place 1 inch apart. Gather dough scraps; reroll until all dough is used.
• Bake 7 to 9 minutes or until cookies are just puffed and tops are dry. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 15 minutes.
• Spoon frosting into reasealable freezer plastic bag; partially seal bag and cut 1/4-inch hole in 1 bottom corner. Or use decorating bag with flat tip with 1/4-inch-wide opening (#44). Gently squeeze bag to pipe frosting on cookies for bandages. Attach jelly beans for eyes; use black gel to make pupils in eyes. Store cookies in airtight container.

Steps:

• Combine the all-purpose flour, almond flour, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder in a medium bowl; whisk to combine. Beat the butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, 4 to 5 minutes. Beat in the egg and both extracts. Reduce the mixer speed to medium low; beat in the flour mixture until combined. Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm enough to roll out but not hard, 1 to 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350˚. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Working with 1 piece of dough at a time, roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface until about 1/4 inch thick. Cut out shapes using a 5-inch mummy cookie cutter (or cut the dough into rectangles or circles). Reserve the dough scraps. Arrange the cutouts about 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets.
• Gather the dough scraps and roll out on a lightly floured surface until very thin. Cut into 1/8-inch-wide strips. Arrange the dough strips on the cutouts to look like bandages, trimming as needed. Refrigerate the cutouts until firm, about 15 minutes.
• Bake the cookies until firm around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely on the baking sheets. Dust with confectioners' sugar and dot with black decorating icing for eyes.

Steps:

• Make the cookies: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy, 2-3 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until creamy and fully combined, 1-2 minutes more.
• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking soda. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on medium-low speed just until incorporated, 2-3 minutes. Refrigerate the dough for about 20 minutes, or until firm enough to handle.
• For a mummy body, roll 1-1½ tablespoons of cookie dough into a 3-inch-long carrot shape. For a head, roll some of the dough into a ½-inch-wide ball. Stick the head onto the wider end of the body. Repeat with the remaining dough; you should have about 24 mummies total. Arrange the cookies on the prepared baking sheets, spacing evenly, then chill in the freezer for 5-10 minutes, until firm.
• Bake the cookies for 8-9 minutes, or until set and golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
• Decorate the cookies: In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine 16 ounces of white chocolate chips and 1½ tablespoons of coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between, until completely melted and smooth.
• Using a fork, dip each cookie in the melted white chocolate to coat completely. Remove any excess chocolate by scraping the bottom of the cookie and fork against the rim of the bowl. Return the cookies to the baking sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened.
• In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the remaining 4 ounces of white chocolate and the remaining ½ tablespoon coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between, until completely melted and smooth. Transfer to a piping bag and cut a small hole at the tip.
• Pipe the melted white chocolate in zigzags over the dipped cookies, starting at the top and working downward. Finish with a long X-shaped drizzle over the zig zags. Add 2 candy eyeballs to the top of each cookie. Chill in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened.
• Enjoy!
