Super fun and easy to make no-bake Peanut Butter Mummies! They’re delicious, kid-approved, and a perfect Halloween treat.
Autumn is here and Halloween is the perfect time to bake — or, in this case, create no-bake treats with the kids. We love making costumes and decorating the house, but the highlight is always the treats. This year we chose a simple, playful idea: Peanut Butter Mummies. They combine familiar flavors with a festive look and are easy enough for children to help assemble.
This Peanut Butter Mummy is an ideal Halloween snack. Black and orange are classic Halloween colors, but the pale white of the mummy wrapping makes a fun contrast, and little candy eyes give each piece a quirky personality. We start with a peanut butter base cut into rectangles, coat them in melted white chocolate, and finish with a drizzle to create the mummy wrapping and two tiny chocolate-chip eyes. The result is cute, slightly spooky, and irresistibly tasty.
If you prefer, you can shape the mixture into pumpkins, bats, or other characters — the most important part is enjoying the process with your children. Decorating together is the fun part: let kids get creative with eyes, sprinkles, and drizzles. These mummies travel well to parties and are an easy homemade option to share with neighborhood kids on Halloween night.
