Chicken Finger Mummies

Caramel Apple Pops
Clock

Ingredients

  • 1½ lb chicken tenderloins
  • 2 Tbsp butter, melted
  • ½ tsp Italian seasoning
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 (8-oz) can refrigerated crescent dough sheet (or use crescent roll dough)
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Candy eyeballs

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Toss together chicken, melted butter, Italian seasoning, and salt; spread in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  2. Bake 15 minutes; cool 15 minutes.
  3. Unroll crescent dough sheet on a lightly floured surface. Using a pizza wheel, cut dough lengthwise into ⅛-to ¼-inch-thick strips. Cut each strip into thirds.
  4. Wrap strips around each chicken tenderloin to resemble "mummy bandages," leaving a space at the top for eyes. Return wrapped chicken to pan; sprinkle with cheese.
  5. Bake 15 minutes or until golden brown. Arrange candy eyeballs in between "bandages." Serve with ketchup and mustard.

Side Dish Ingredients

  • ½ (12-oz) pkg milk chocolate chips
  • 2 apples
  • Lollipop sticks
  • ½ (11-oz) pkg caramel bits
  • ½ (16-oz) pkg honey-roasted peanuts, chopped (or use mini M&M candies)

Side Dish Instructions

  1. Melt chocolate chips in a microwavable dish according to package directions.
  2. Cut apples into ½-inch slices, discarding the cores and seeds. Pat apples dry with paper towels.
  3. To help the sticks stay in place, dip the tip of each lollipop stick in melted chocolate before sliding into each apple slice.
  4. Dip apple slices in melted chocolate, coating completely. Shake off excess chocolate before placing apples on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  5. Transfer baking sheet to refrigerator to help chocolate set quickly.
  6. Melt caramel bits according to package directions. Drizzle over coated apple slices; immediately sprinkle with nuts.
  7. Return to refrigerator until caramel has set. For best results, serve Caramel Apple Pops the same day they're made.
