Description
## Better-Than-Grandma Tips
For a neater look, be sure to stretch the crescent roll dough gently in all directions before placing the Snickers bar. This will help prevent the dough from tearing.
Don’t overbake the mummies. They should be lightly golden on top. Overbaking can make them dry.
Get creative with the bandages! Use thin strips of dough to create a more intricate mummy wrap. For more Halloween treat ideas, check out our Halloween Recipe Collection.
Ingredients
- 1 package (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 Snickers bar, cut into 8 pieces
- Powdered sugar
- Candy eyes
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Unroll the crescent roll dough. Gently stretch each triangle and place a Snickers bar vertically, about an inch from the shorter edge. Cut off the pointy tip and save for later. Cut horizontal strips in the dough along the sides of the Snickers. Fold and wrap the dough strips around the Snickers, tucking in any excess.
- Use the reserved dough scraps to create thin strips for extra bandages. Crisscross them over the Snickers, leaving a space for the eyes. Place the mummies on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for about 10 minutes, or until golden. Let cool slightly. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and add candy eyes.
- Serve warm or at room temperature. Your spooky and delicious Halloween Snickers Mummies are ready!

Try These Variations
- Nutty Mummies: Add a sprinkle of chopped peanuts or almonds before baking for extra crunch.
- Drizzled Delight: Drizzle melted white chocolate over the baked mummies for an extra layer of sweetness.
- Spooky Spiderwebs: Before baking, pipe melted dark chocolate in a spiderweb design over the mummies for an extra spooky effect.
- Other Candy Bars: Try these with other fun-size candy bars for different flavor profiles. See our post on Candy Bar Desserts for inspiration!
Can I use different types of candy eyes?
You can use any type of candy eyes you prefer, such as the sprinkle kind or the larger edible eyes. Both will work equally well and add to the mummy effect.
What can I use instead of powdered sugar?
If you don’t have powdered sugar on hand, you can try a light dusting of confectioners’ sugar or even a drizzle of melted white chocolate for a different look.
How do I store leftover Snickers mummies?
These mummies are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, but you can store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for a day or two. Reheat them briefly in the microwave for that warm, freshly-baked taste.
Can I use different candy bars?
Absolutely! Instead of Snickers, you can use other fun-size candy bars such as Milky Way, Twix, or 3 Musketeers. Just make sure they are similar in size and shape to the Snickers bar for easy wrapping.
How to Serve
These Snickers Mummies are delicious served warm, straight from the oven. However, they’re just as tasty at room temperature. Serve them on a platter for a spooky Halloween party, or pack them in lunchboxes for a fun surprise. Looking for more fun Halloween recipes? Try our Spooky Spiderweb Dip.
