Instructions
Preparing the filling
Dry grind the cereal and make into fine powder.
Now mix the peanut butter with this cereal powder and incorporate them well.
Make small lemon sized balls or ladoos. (This cereal ladoo by itself was tasting awesome ;-) )
Refrigerate it for 30 minutes.
Preparing the Cover
I usually melt the chocolate using double boiler method.
I went with the regular double boiler method. You can also melt them in microwave.
So basically I boiled water in a vessel and cover it with a plate. In another bowl, I added the white chocolate and kept it on top.
The chocolate will slow start to melt and keep stirring it and keep it in the boiler till you can remove the filling from the fridge.
Assembling
After 30 minutes, remove the fillings from fridge. Now slowly dip the filling one by one in the melted white chocolate.
Make sure the white chocolate is coated nicely. Remove them and keep it in a parchment paper. If you are using plate, just grease them with oil so that it can be removed easily.
Now refrigerate this again for 45 minutes or until the chocolate is set.
Adding the mummy bandages
Once the chocolate is set, remove them from the fridge and let it come to room temperature.
Meanwhile melt the white chocolate again if it is set.
Now using fork or spoon slow drizzle the melted white chocolate as a bandage around the white chocolate cereal.
After drizzling on all white chocolate, refrigerate them again for 20 minutes.
Adding the eyes
You can use any black icing or any colored icing or frosting.
If you don’t have in handy, just mix your favorite food color.
After the chocolate is set, using a tooth pick place a small amount in the chocolate mummies as eyes. You can even draw mouth and sky is the limit.
Let it set for ten minutes and that’s it. Yummy White Chocolate Mummies with Cereals and Peanut Butter Filling is ready.
Notes
Letting the ingredients set is very important. We do not want the filling to break while covering it with white chocolates.
Also if you feel you have added more peanut butter, you can freeze for 30 minutes instead of refrigerating them.
I didn’t add any additional sugar, but if preferred sugar can be added too.
As I mentioned beetroot juice or kesari powder, spinach juice any natural flavors or artificial can be added for the eyes.
Last but not least, have fun and make it goofy or spooky. :-)
