Creepy Buck"eyes"

Manda in Ohio's Note:

A fun twist on a favorite. Perfect for Halloween parties! My family either loves them or are a bit creeped out by them. Either way, there's never any left!

• Total Time: 1 hrs
• Prep Time: 1 hrs
• Cook Time: 0 mins

Ingredients:

Serves: 1-2

Yield: 8.0 dozen

• 1 cup margarine, softened
• 5 cups powdered sugar
• 2 cups smooth peanut butter
• 1 lb white chocolate almond bark
• 2 (1 2/3 ounce) bags M&M's plain chocolate candy
• red food coloring
• 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions:

1. Mix margarine, powdered sugar & peanut butter together. I use the bread hook attachment on my stand mixer. Form into "eyeball" size balls & place on a cookie sheet & chill.
2. Melt chocolate in a double boiler or microwave (whichever is easier for you). Dip the peanut butter balls completely in chocolate. Place 1 M&M on each ball before the chocolate hardens.
3. When "eyeballs" are set up & the chocolate is hard, se a red food coloring pen, or red food coloring with a paint brush, to draw on the "veins". Use melted chocolate chips to create the "iris". I created the dots using a tooth pick, but you can also use a piping bag with a small round tip.
