Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  • Prepare the Crescent Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a clean surface or cutting board. Gently press the seams together to form one smooth sheet.
  • Add the Cocoa Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, stir unsweetened cocoa powder into melted butter. Lightly brush the mixture over the dough, leaving some spots uncoated for that spooky “worn bandage” look.
  • Slice Dough into Strips: Use a pizza cutter to slice the dough into thin strips about ¼ inch wide, perfect for wrapping your mummy sausages.
  • Wrap the Sausages: Take each sausage link and wrap it with the dough strips, crisscrossing to mimic mummy bandages. Be sure to leave small gaps for the eyes.
  • Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the wrapped mummy sausages evenly on your prepared baking sheet so they bake up golden and crisp.
  • Bake Until Golden: Bake the mummy sausages for 17 to 20 minutes, or until the crescent dough is puffed and beautifully golden brown.
  • Add the Eyes: Dip edible candy eyes (or small candy pieces) in a little ketchup, then gently press them onto the exposed sausage gaps to bring your mummies to life.
  • Serve and Enjoy: Serve these Halloween Mummy Sausages warm with your favorite dipping sauces and watch them disappear at your spooky party!
