Recipe Tips

If you don't have candy eyes, you can use white chocolate chips or melted white chocolate to create eyes instead. Simply use a toothpick to dot two small circles of melted chocolate onto each treat, then add a small black dot in the center of each circle using a piping bag or toothpick dipped in black food coloring.
