Yummy Mummy Brie: A Scary and Sweet Halloween Treat

With Halloween just around the corner, we know you are stocking up on everything sweet and spooky. But in case you haven’t heard, Kit Kat’s and Reese’s are so last year. This year, Halloween is all about the cheese. So hold onto your broomsticks and get ready to learn how to make a Mummy Brie.

As with most of our recipes, this is fairly simple to make. The main ingredients you will need are a wheel of Président Brie and frozen Puff Pastry. We recommend the Pepperidge Farm brand as it is dairy free and easily available in most super markets. The best part of this recipe is the creative liberties you can take. Once you have the brie all ready to go, you can wrap the mummy however you would like. Additionally, while we stuffed the inside of the pastry with strawberry jam and chocolate, you can change it up and put any type of fruit or candy. We used Enjoy Life chocolate chips, which is our favorite dairy-free brand. Keep in mind, that the strawberry jam seeping through the mummy does help to create a scary “blood” effect if you are trying to keep with the Halloween theme.

We hope you find this recipe as spooktacular as we do!
