How to make Halloween Mummy Cupcakes
How to make Halloween Mummy CupcakesTo create your Mummy Cupcakes, just make your cake mix as cupcakes following the directions on the box. Allow them to cool so that your frosting won't melt when you apply it.
While you're waiting for your cupcakes to cool, cut the marshmallows in half and place them on some wax paper or some cling film sprayed with some non-stick cooking spray.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the candy melts and coconut oil in 30 seconds intervals until it is completely melted. I like to add some extra chips after I've melted them in to microwave to give them a tempering. I like to follow the settings on this post.
Pour your Candy Melts into a sandwich bag and drizzle over the marshmallow halves. Add the eyes afterward and allow the chocolate to set.
How to assemble Mummy Cupcakes
After you've mixed your buttercream, pipe it onto your cupcakes and add your Mummy on top to make the perfect spooky Halloween cupcakes.
These Mummy Cupcakes are so festive for the holiday and I love that they are perfect companions to my other Halloween cupcakes.
