How to Make Easy Mummy Cupcakes

Preheat oven to the temperature specified on the cake mix box. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Prepare the chocolate cake batter according to the instructions on the cake mix box.
Fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full with batter.
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cupcakes cool completely in the muffin tin before frosting.
Once cooled, frost each cupcake evenly with vanilla frosting.
Melt the white candy melts according to package directions. Transfer to a piping bag or zip-top bag with a small corner snipped off.
Pipe melted white candy melts onto each frosted cupcake to resemble mummy bandages, leaving space for the ‘eyes’.
Add mini chocolate chips as the eyes.
