Unroll the crescent rolls. Divide into 4 rectangles, pressing together the seam of two triangles. Using a pizza cutter, slice each rectangle lengthwise into 10 strips.

Wrap each stuffed jalapeño first with 1 slice of cooked bacon and then with 2 strips of dough. Try to leave a space where the eyes will be. Place on prepared baking sheet.

Bake for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and carefully place candy eyeballs (or olives) on each mummy.
