Halloween Eyeballs

I know it's a bit late to post this one, but it's soooo cute...a good one to have on record for next year's parties!

2 Cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
1/3 cup Karo syrup
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened

Mix together peanut butter, Karo syrup and butter. Gradually add powdered sugar. Mix until it is a smooth, soft dough. Roll into 1" balls. Place in cool area to set up (NOT the fridge or freezer)

1 pkg white candy melts (melted) you can get these at most craft stores...you can also try white chocolate chips, but I found the candy chips to work better
1 small package M&M candies
Red gel frosting (or- at specialty craft stores they have write-on decorating pens that work terrifically for this!)
Black gel frosting

Using a fork or dipping tool. I used a fork like a spoon and placed the ball on top of the fork, dropped it into the melted candy chips and just spooned the candy over it. Then pick up the ball with the fork (like a spoon) and gently shake it to let the candy evenly coat the ball and drip off the excess.

After dipping, immediately place and M&M on top, gently pressing down (if the chocolate sets before you put the M&M on, it will crack) Let the dipped balls sit to set up. Lastly, decorate with the red gel for blood vessels and black gel for the pupil.


Scarily Delicious!!!
