Learn to Make Chocolate Mummy Cookies

This express chocolate mummy cookie recipe makes about 18 widespread sized cookies or I used a medium-sized cookie scoop to confirm that they had been all even in dimension. That is learn how to make them:

In a giant bowl, mix collectively the peanut butter, eggs and vanilla until all blended. Subsequent add throughout the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, coconut sugar and salt, stir the mixture until straightforward, then fold throughout the chocolate chips. You would possibly moreover use a stand mixer or {an electrical} mixer for this, nevertheless why dirty additional dishes!
2. Assemble cookies. Using a medium-sized cookie scoop, drop tablespoonfuls of cookie dough onto a prepared baking sheet and flatten the tops a bit with the once more end of a spatula. It’s good to get about 18 cookies.
3. BAKE! Bake the cookies at 375 ranges for 12 to fifteen minutes until the cookies are set and the edges start to brown, then let the cookies cool on the baking tray for about 10 minutes sooner than transferring them to a wire rack. We want the cookies to relax completely sooner than adorning.
4. adorn. Add white chocolate chips (or white candy melts) in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30 second intervals, mixing each time, until melted. Decrease a small slit on the tip of a dishevelled plastic or piping bag and completely pour throughout the melted white chocolate chips. Slowly pipe the chocolate onto the cookies to make them look like “mummy bandages” after which use the melted chocolate to connect the candy eyes on.

• The melted white chocolate is simply not solely used to create the “bandages” on the mummies, nevertheless acts as a glue to remain on the candy eyeballs. You would possibly moreover use cream cheese, buttercream or white frosting to make the bandages.
