Halloween Cookie Suckers
October 17, 2012 by Shelley
Hello, I am Mummy…
Yummy Mummy! {Ha, I’m a dork}.
You know we are all about oreo cookie suckers around here. I couldn’t resist the opportunity to make some spooky treats. I started thinking, if we can make oreos into something cute, what other cookies could we transform?
How about Nutter Butters? ’OOOoooOOOooo’!
I couldn’t stop there!! I had so much fun on the cookie aisle at the grocery store. I was determined to find more cookie shapes to transform. Who would have thought Mother’s Sandwhich cookies would make such fabulous tombstones?
I just loved how these crazy mummies turned out. They are my favorite. They make me smile. 
I love their big eyes peeking through.
Oh the kids are going to love these!!! They are so fun to make, funner to give, and even funner to eat.

Follow the basic Oreo Cookie Sucker instructions to start.
Mummies
You’ll need: Oreo cookies, Sucker Sticks
Instructions: Dip cookie sucker into white melted candy coating, immediately stick on candy eyes, let dry. Use a piping bag (or plastic bag with the end cut off) to drizzle white lines over the eyes. Easy. -I used a ‘ribbon piping’ tip at the end of my piping bag to get the wider ribbon like lines. If you prefer the thicker lines (instead of thin stringy lines) try using a ribbon piping tip.
Ghosts
You’ll Need: Nutter butter cookies, Sucker Sticks
Instructions: Cut off very bottom of Nutter Butter with a knife, dip cookie sucker into white melted coating, immediately stick on candy eyes, let dry. Make crazy ghost faces with black edible marker.
Tombstones
You’ll need: Mother’s Cream filled cookies, Sucker Sticks
Instructions: Make ‘RIP’ by using a piping bag with white melted candy coating. Write RIP on wax paper and let harden (I stuck mine in the freezer for a few minutes). Make grey candy coating by melting white candy coating, and adding Black candy color. Dip cookie sucker into grey coating, immediately add ‘RIP’. Let dry. Using a piping bag (or plastic bag with end cut off) make grass on the bottom of the tombstone . Use a fork to get the ‘grass effect’.

Okay, these are seriously the most adorable Halloween snack I’ve seen. EVAR! We are living overseas right now and Halloween is not a huge deal. I’m so making these for my son’s preschool class so we can spread the spirit!

I love those. Great ideas! I’ve done spiders out of Oreos and pretzels using mini M&Ms for the eyes. The mummy ones are my favorite.

Awesome! These will go great in treat bags to give out to our neighbors. Thanks for sharing.
Where do you find candy eyes?
How can I print these ideas and recipes?
Do you know how long these will keep after they have been made? I want to make them for our halloween party but I was wondering how far in advance I could make them.

I made these for our school bake sale, they were a big hit! Thanks for all of the great ideas!!
if anyone needs some really great quality chocolate for making these adorable suckers (or any candies) check out Dove Chocolate Discoveries. You can see the catalog at http://www.dove-chocolate-discoveries.com/stephaniebenson
Can’t wait to make these for my son’s kindergarten class!
this is great! another Halloween treat on my list.
Don’t laugh, but I tried my first attempt at making oreo cookie pops, but my cookies fell off the stick when I dipped them in the chocolate! I spooned them out and then spooned on the chocolate. I’ll need to practice more…yum.
Oh no!! Make sure you dip the stick in the melted chocolate before sandwiching the stick in. Then let the chocolate harden before dipping the whole cookie. –Clear as mud?!
Hope that helps.
This was my problem!!! I just did them stick-less. Still cute. Thanks for the idea!
ohmigosh… these are GREAT!!!
I just finished making these adorable suckers! Too stinking cute
I made the Mummy Pops for a bake sale at my son’s school. 50 of these little treats where gone in 15 minutes – the first thing to sell out!! I wasn’t able to purchase the candy eyes in time so I used chocolate chips. Not as cute, but they worked. Thanks for being so creative!!
My favorite holiday is Halloween so love easy, fun crafts to make! Just bought some lollipop stick today so glad I stumbled across your site & found these easy mummpy pops! Thanks for posting, Lindsey
Beautiful ideas. Looks delicious.

I tried making the ghost suckers today but couldn’t get the sucker stick to stick in the nutter butters. I just wilton sucker sticks from JoAnn’s…what did you use? or is there a trick?

.-= Caryn´s last blog ..Monkey See- Monkey Do =-.
Make sure you dip the stick in chocolate, put it in the sandwich, and let it HARDEN before trying to dip the suckers. You can speed this up by sticking them in the fridge for a few minutes. Hope that helps!
Wow, has this been frustrating for me. I made sure to dip the sticks first in the melted chocolate, let it harden between the 2 cookie sides, and then dip after it hardens. I found that the center just re-melts when I dip the cookie and then the stick slides right out again. I have tried with about a dozen and have given up. Sad face. So now I am stuck with 35 Oreos on a stick. What to do…what to do….
Edited to Add:
OK, after much stewing over this, I had my lightbulb moment. Let me preface this, by saying, I am a TOTAL novice in the creative dept. (like you couldn’t tell), so this update will be common sense to most of you. But maybe for that 0.50% of others who share my culinary pain, this is for you:
When you dip the cookies after you’ve let the chocolate harden, let the chocolate in the dipping bowl COOL DOWN for about 5 minutes, so that it’s still soft but not burn your fingers hot. OK, I know, I know, DUH!!! I feel so ashamed to even post this, as I am a total fool, but like I said, maybe others who didn’t think of doing this and having no success will find it helpful.
My mummies aren’t turning out as beautiful as yours, but I’m sure my son’s little buddies won’t notice the flaws!!!
Happy Halloween!!!
Oh I’m so glad you commented! I’m sorry yours aren’t turning out as expected. My mother-in-law tried these a few nights ago and her chocolate was too lumpy, no matter what she did. I have never had problems making my cookie suckers,…but I think the stars have to align for everything to go perfectly. Weather? Right chocolate? Who knows? Thanks for your input. Hopefully others are having success!
OMG! I love these! I recently made them and featured a post back to your site! Check it out when you get a chance!
Love love your blog!
I made these for my daughter’s class party today (stuck them in black tissue, inside a novelty coffin with spooky sounds).
I had trouble finding melting candy/chocolate that was as white as my royal icing – so my bandages don’t match the background. Any suggestions for next time?
I made the adorable mummy oreo suckers! Thanks so much for the directions. They were so much fun to make and supper easy! THey are posted on my blog along with credit to you.

Very cute. Will be a good project with my grand daughter.
Those Suckers look so cute. I am going to give them a try! Kids will love them I am sure. Thanks for sharing.
I made these for my grandchildren. So easy and so much fun. I used Oreo Cakesters instead of the Oreo cookies. They were softer and easier to eat. Thanks for the idea.
