Take a look at these Mummy Cookie Pops I made for Halloween! It’s the first time I worked with fondant and it was much easier than I thought.

SUPPLIES:

I used packaged sugar cookie dough. I sliced the dough into 1/4 inch thick circles, carefully pushed the lollipop sticks in about half-way through, then baked until the cookies were crisp. I wanted to make sure they’d hold up as pops. Let the cookies cool.

 I fastened my candy eyes on using tiny dots of cookie icing.

I rolled out my fondant until it was very thin, about 1/16 inch.

Using a pizza cutter, I cut 1/4 inch strips.

I smoothed  a thin layer of white frosting onto the cookie where I wanted the bandages to be. The frosting acted as my glue.

I started layering my fondant on the cookie to look like bandages. If I needed more glue, I used more frosting.

Here’s how I made the forehead.

I continued “gluing” down strips until the whole face was covered. And here are the finished cookies!
