No Bake Mummy Treat
Ingredients
- snack cakes Twinkies or Little Debbies
- canned frosting white color
- StackerMallows the kind you use for smores
- candy eyes purchased at Michaels Stores
- wooden popsicle/craft sticks
Instructions
- Place the snack cakes in the freezer for 30 minutes or as long as needed so the snack cake is firm.
- Stick the wooden craft stick in the the snack cake at the bottom. So the snack cake will be vertical on the stick.
- Frost the Twinkie by covering the front and sides of the snack cake in icing. If you are doing this for a class activity, give each child a paper plate and plastic knife. Have them cover their own snack cake in frosting. No need to cover the back. Just a light coat of frosting is needed.
- We used a rolling pin to flatten the stackermallows. If need be, use powdered sugar to prevent sticking. Using kitchen scissors cut the flattened marshmallow into strips (three strips per marshmallow). If kids will be making these, cut the strips for them. The marshmallow strips will be used as the "rags" of the mummy.
- Overlap the marshmallow strips on the frosted snack cake at different angles for a wrapped look. If need be, use the icing to "glue" the marshmallows that overlap each other onto the snack cakes. Place the eyes directly on with the icing. Cover the eyes slightly with the marshmallow strips.
