When you are ready to make the mozzarella sticks, preheat the oven to 375.
Unroll one tube of crescent dough.
Using about 3/4 of each crescent, wrap a thin layer of dough completely around the frozen cheese stick so the the dough completely covers the cheese stick. Stretch the dough out as needed as you are covering the cheese.
Set the wrapped stick aside and repeat with all the cheese sticks until they are all covered in a thin layer of crescent dough.
Unroll the second tube of and gently press the seams together. Roll the dough out until it's about 1/2" thick.
Cut thin strips of dough to make "bandages" using a pizza cutter or serrated knife.
Wrap thin strips around the wrapped cheese sticks to make mummies, You can twist and break the dough to give them a spookier feel.
Repeat until all the cheese sticks are mummified. Spread them evenly out on two baking sheets covered in aluminum foil.
Mix the melted butter with garlic powder or pressed garlic. Brush the garlic butter over the mummies.
Bake the mummy mozzarella sticks in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until they are just starting to turn golden brown.
