If you're looking for something quick and festive, this is for you. It's very much another Sandra Lee Semi-Homemade moment. I used store bought brownies, mini cookies, white chocolate, and candy eyeballs.
Here's a the breakdown of what I used:
Cosmic Brownies - The nut version is good too.
Mini Oreos - I just used an individual snack pack from the kid's lunch packs.
Candy Eyeballs - I found mine at Walmart but I also saw some at Albertsons.
Vegetable Oil
Mummies:
Remove brownies from individual wrappers and place on a cookie rack or platter. I also removed the cosmic chips. They come off fairly easy too. Just flick or gently roll off. Optional.
Melt chocolate chips however you choose. I melted mine in the microwave in a microwave safe mug for about 60 seconds. I paused at 30 seconds to stir. When melted, add a tiny dash of vegetable oil and stir well. This helps the chocolate spread evenly and it gives it that glossy shine.
With a spoon layer the chocolate over the brownies in a side to side motion. Drizzling the chocolate didn't workout for me. Spreading in a side to side motion got the job done.
Set eyes and done.
Let chocolate cool before eating.
FYI they are sweet. I kind of wish I had vanilla ice cream. Homemade brownies will work too.
Eyes:
Dip or smudge some chocolate on the Oreos and place one candy eyeball. Let chocolate cool before eating.
This little idea was random and in the moment. I had left over melted chocolate and remembered seeing mummy Oreos on Pinterest. I didn't have regular Oreos on deck but the kids' snack drawer had mini Oreos and boom it hit me; Googly eyes!

Safe holiday friends! Hope you enjoy!
