Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- White icing (store-bought or homemade)
- Eye candy or mini chocolate chips for decoration
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients until fully combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly dispersed throughout the cookie dough.
- Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft. Allow to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
- Once cooled, use the white icing to create “bandages” over the cookies, making sure to leave space for the eyes.
- Finally, place the eye candy or mini chocolate chips onto the icing for each mummy to give them a fun, spooky look.
Let the cookies set for a bit so the icing hardens. Once done, serve these delightful Chocolate Mummy Cookies at your next Halloween party or simply enjoy them at home. They’re sure to bring smiles and delight to everyone who sees them!
