I can't wait to see all of these fun sounding recipes.  I found mine on the Pillsbury website, using refrigerated crescent roll sheets.  I didn't have any crescent roll sheets in the refrigerator but I did have a sheet of puffed pastry in the freezer.  Game on.

I rolled the dough to about 12x15" and then cut that into 9 equal sized pieces.

 I lightly scored each of the nine pieces into thirds being careful not to cut through.

I placed some hazelnut spread in the center third.

Then cut through each side into horizontal strips.

I cut bananas in half crosswise and then cut each half in half lengthwise.

Lay one quarter of each banana on top of the hazelnut spread.

Wrap it up mummy style by crisscrossing the strips from the sides over the banana.

Coat with an egg wash to help the dough adhere to itself.

Bake them to a beautiful golden puffy brown.

I had a hungry toddler and teen breathing down my neck so I didn't wait for them to cool before drizzling them with glaze.  I'm sure that they would have looked better had I waited but the taste was still the same and the girls LOVED them.  I thought they were cloyingly sweet and Frank is not a hazelnut spread fan.  But, after all, Halloween is all about the kids anyway. This is a fun little project to make with them to start off the day.  They loved "wrapping" the mummies and brushing with the egg wash.

I think that you could also use peanut butter in this recipe for equally good results.  I know that my husband would have preferred that.  I even thought that a raspberry jam would have been a good choice with the red resembling blood.

Play with it. Have fun.  After all, recipes are only a guideline offering inspiration to your creative side.  Happy Hauntings Everyone.
