Blood Shot Candy Eyeballs
Ingredients:
2 cups confectioners' sugar, divided
...1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1/2 lb white candy coating (white chocolate)
24 brownReese's pieces or 24 brown M&M's
Icing:
1 tablespoon water
1/4-1/2 teaspoon red food coloring
and confectioners' sugar, to right consistency for piping
Prep Time: 30 minutes
In a small mixing bowl, combine the confectioners sugar, peanut butter, and butter. Shape into 1" balls, and place on a waxed paper lined pan. Chill for 30 minutes, or until firm. In a microwave, melt white candy coating. Stir until smooth. Dip balls in coating, and place on waxed paper. Immediately press one Reese's Pieces or M&M candy on top of each eyeball for pupils. Let stand for 30 minutes, or until set. In a small bowl combine water, food coloring, and confectioners sugar. Mix well. Transfer to a heavy-duty resealable plastic bag. Cut a small whole in a corner of the bag. Pipe wavy lines downward from the candy, creating the look of bloodshot eyes. Store eye balls in an airtight container.
