Let’s break it down step by step:

  1. Prepare the brownie mix according to the box directions in a large mixing bowl, stir until combine. Pour brownie batter into a 9×13 prepared pan. Or feel free to use your favorite brownie recipe Bake in oven until set, usually 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick in the center comes out clean.
  2. Once done, run a paring knife along the sides of the pan to loosen the brownies.
  3. Place a wire rack over the pan, use potholders, and flip the baking dish over so the brownies come out onto the cooling rack.
  4. Put a cookie sheet on top and flip again so the brownies are right-side up.
  5. Use your Mickey cookie cutter to cut out shapes. (Pro tip: snack on the scraps while you decorate or save for the kiddos 😉).
  6. Scoop frosting into a pastry bag. Snip the end with scissors so you have a medium tip opening.
  7. Pipe frosting across each brownie in a zigzag motion or in horizontal lines so they look like mummy bandages or wrappings.
  8. Optional: Add candy eyes if you have them for extra cuteness.
  9. Serve and watch them disappear faster than you can say “boo!”

Fun Variations

Want to change things up a bit? Try these ideas to spice up Mummy Halloween Brownies:

  • Use chocolate frosting instead of vanilla for a darker, spookier look.
  • Add candy eyeballs to make them extra “alive.” 👀
  • Switch out the Mickey cutter for another shape like pumpkins, ghosts, or bats. Even a gingerbread man shape would work for making these easy Halloween desserts.
  • Try homemade brownies instead of a box mix if you have the time.
  • Use white chocolate drizzle instead of frosting for a thinner mummy wrap. Just melt white chocolate chips in the microwave. Then drizzle melted chocolate over the brownies.

Can They Be Stored or Made Ahead?

Yep! These brownies keep well. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for 2–3 days.

If you want to make them ahead, bake and cut the brownies first. Then wait until the day of serving to add the mummy frosting so it stays fresh and doesn’t get smudged.

You can also freeze undecorated brownie cutouts for up to a month. Just thaw, decorate, and serve. Easy peasy.

Common Questions About Mickey Mouse Mummy Brownies

Can I make these without a Mickey cookie cutter?

What if my brownies crumble when I cut them?
