How to Make Mummy Rice Krispie Treats

Step 1: Make the Rice Krispie Treats

In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.

Add the marshmallows and stir until completely melted and smooth.

Remove from the heat and gently fold in the Rice Krispies cereal until everything is evenly coated.

Step 2: Press and Cut

Transfer the mixture to a lightly greased 9-by-13-inch baking dish.

Using a greased spatula or a piece of parchment paper, gently press the mixture into an even layer. Don’t pack it down too tightly, or your treats will be hard.

Allow to cool and set for approximately 30 minutes.

Cut into 12 rectangular treats.

Step 3: Add Popsicle Sticks (Optional)

If you’re making mummy pops, gently insert a popsicle stick into the bottom of each rectangle.

If the treats feel too soft, allow them to firm up a little longer before adding the sticks.

You can also skip the sticks entirely!

Step 4: Add the Candy Eyes

Melt the white chocolate or candy melts according to the package instructions.

Use a small dab of melted chocolate to attach two candy eyes near the top of each Rice Krispie treat.

Allow the chocolate to set slightly so the eyes stay in place.

Step 5: Make Your Mummies!

Transfer the remaining melted white chocolate to a piping bag or zip-top bag and snip a tiny corner.

Drizzle the chocolate back and forth across each treat to create mummy bandages, leaving the eyes visible.

Don’t worry about making the lines perfect. Uneven drizzles make them look even more like little mummies!

Allow the chocolate to set completely before serving or packaging.

Tips for the Best Mummy Rice Krispie Treats

Keep the heat low. Melting marshmallows over low heat helps keep the treats soft and chewy.

Don’t press too firmly. Compacting the cereal mixture can make the finished treats dense and hard.

Use melting chocolate. White candy melts or melting wafers are easier to drizzle and generally set more reliably than regular white chocolate chips.

Attach the eyes first. This makes it easier to drizzle around them without covering their little faces.

Make them ahead. These treats can be prepared a day or two before your Halloween celebration.

The Ultimate Halloween Shortcut

Want to make these even easier?

Buy individually wrapped Rice Krispie treats, unwrap them, and go straight to decorating.

You’ll have adorable little Halloween mummies in about 15 minutes, with practically no cleanup.

Sometimes that’s exactly the kind of Halloween project we need.

How to Store Mummy Rice Krispie Treats

Store your finished mummies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2–3 days for the best texture.

If stacking, place parchment paper between layers to protect the chocolate decorations.

Avoid refrigerating them unless necessary, since refrigeration can make the treats firmer.

Perfect for Halloween Parties and Bake Sales

These little mummies are especially fun for school Halloween parties, bake sales, and neighborhood gatherings.

Add popsicle sticks and wrap each one individually in a clear treat bag for easy serving.

If you’re making them for school, always check classroom allergy requirements and ingredient labels first. Rice Krispies, marshmallows, candy eyes, and melting chocolate can vary by brand.
