Ingredients:
- chocolate cake mix
- black cupcake liners
- vanilla frosting
- white fondant
- candy eyes
- pizza cutter/knife
Instructions:
1: Prepare cupcakes according to package directions and bake in black cupcake liners. Remove from oven and allow cupcakes to cool completely.
2: Top each cupcake with a thin layer of vanilla frosting. Roll out fondant to about the thickness of a fettucine noodle. Use a pizza cutter or knife to cut it into 1/4" wide strips.
3: Place fondant strips on top of the cupcake, layering the pieces as you go to resemble the look of a mummy's bandages.
4: When you're happy with the bandaged look, use a knife or kitchen scissors to cut off any extra fondant. Use your fingers to press the fondant layers and vanilla frosting together around the edges.
5: Finally, add candy eyes.
