"E" is for Eyeball Cookies

I haven't actually made these but definitely plan to. For the letter "E" I took eyeball candies and made sugar cookies decorated to look like an egg. I like these so much better!




Halloween Eyeball Cookies

Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups peanut butter
2 cups powdered sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
12 ounces white dipping chocolate
1/2 cup mini chocolate chip
blue food coloring

Directions:

• Cream the butter and peanut butter together.
• Beat in the vanilla and sugar.
• Chill for 1/2 hour.
• Roll into small balls, chill on wax paper for another 1/2 hour.
• In a microwave, melt the white dipping chocolate.
• Using two spoons dip the eyeballs into the white chocolate.
• Let cool on waxed paper until firm. Chilling will speed up the process.
• Pour a drop or two of blue food coloring into the remaining melted chocolate.
• Make a round iris on the eyeball, and immediately press a miniature chocolate chip in the center for a pupil, doing 5 at at time.
• For the bloodshot effect, dip the tiny end of a toothpick in red food colouring and squiggle the lines from the pupil outward, but not quite to the edges of the ball.
