Halloween Peanut Butter Balls
Ingredients
-
1/2
cup peanut butter
-
3
tablespoons butter, softened
-
1
cup sifted powdered sugar
-
4
ounces vanilla-flavored candy coating
-
20
candy-coated milk chocolate pieces
-
Red decorator gel icing
-
Black decorator gel icing
Directions
1. In a mixing bowl stir together peanut butter and butter. Gradually add powdered sugar, stirring until combined. Shape into 1-inch balls; place on waxed paper. Let stand about 20 minutes or until dry. In a small saucepan melt candy coating over low heat. Dip balls, one at a time, into coating. Let excess coating drip off peanut butter balls. Place on waxed paper.
2. Immediately press a candy-coated chocolate piece into center of each peanut butter ball. Let stand until coating is firm. Add a dot of black gel to the center of candy pieces for pupils. Drizzle red gel onto balls for bloodshot eyes. Makes about 20 eyeballs (20 servings).
