What’s in the Recipe?
Cookies (crushed) – crushed cookies are the base of this recipe. Cookies provide a good base as they don’t crumble easily, are already packed with flavor, and can hold their shape when molded. I used Oreo.
Milk – It helps bind the cookie crumbles together and adds moisture to them. It is also a rich source of protein and adds flavor to your final product.
Milk chocolate – makes up the liquid part of the recipe alongside milk. It adds a rich, sweet flavor to your Halloween Mummy Truffles.
Butter – melted butter complements the flavors in the Milk and Milk chocolate. Melted butter also adds moisture and creates a chewier texture to your recipe.
White chocolate – white chocolate makes the coating for this recipe and has the perfect consistency for drizzling and design.
Candy eyeballs – are edible google eyes used for pastry/dessert designs.
