Spooky Halloween Eyeballs Recipe

Ingredients

1 ½ cups creamy peanut butter

½ cup butter

softened

2 ½ cups confectioners' sugar

sifted

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

12 ounces white chocolate

chopped

2 tablespoons shortening

2 drops blue food coloring

½ cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips

2 drops red food coloring

Dessert

Directions

Step 1

Beat the peanut butter and butter with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Beat in the sugar and vanilla. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Roll chilled dough into small eyeball-sized balls and place on 2 baking sheets lined with wax paper. Refrigerate for another 30 minutes.

Step 2

Melt the white chocolate and shortening in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30-second intervals stirring after each melting for 1 to 3 minutes (depending on your microwave). Do not overheat or chocolate will scorch. Dip each eyeball into the white chocolate and transfer to the waxed paper until the chocolate has set. You can chill them in the refrigerator.

Step 3

Stir a few drops of blue food coloring into the remaining melted white chocolate. Make a round \iris\ on the top of the cooled eyeball and press a mini chocolate chip in the center for a \pupil.\ For an extra spooky bloodshot eyeballs take a toothpick dipped in red food coloring and make squiggly lines on the eye.
