Mickey Mummy Sugar Cookies
With Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party in full effect at Walt Disney World and seeing so many pictures, I’m in full-blown fall mode. I’m ready for cooler temperatures, fall treats and and of course, all things Mickey just like some of the treats in the parks. So naturally, these Mickey Mummy Sugar Cookies fit the bill.
I think the hardest part is the mixing the dough, baking the cookies and mixing the icing. Once you have them all done, it’s really just putting it all together with the different icings and tips. Okay, maybe I’ve overstated it just a bit.
The Mickey Cookies
You’ll need to start with Mickey shaped sugar cookies
and allow them to cool. I’ve got a yummy recipe below or you can use your favorite.
Option: You can start with black cookies. Just use the black gel coloring
in your dough (sort of like our Infinity Stone cookies) and save a step.
The Icing
If you go the icing route, you’ll pipe the black icing around the edge of Mickey’s head.
Then you’ll fill in the head to make it solid black. This icing will need to dry before making Mickey a mummy.
Once the black is dry, you will use the remaining white icing to randomly put mummy lines all over Mickey’s face.
If you can stand it, let that dry and then enjoy your cookies!
