Ingredients

2 cups green candy melting wafers

12 store-bought donut holes

Candy eyes, for topping 

2/3 cup red candy melting wafers

Directions

Special equipment:
a piping bag
  1. Line a sheet pan with a sheet of parchment paper.
  2. Place the green melting wafers into a bowl over a pan of hot water, also known as a double boiler, until they are melted, 3 to 5 minutes.
  3. Dip the donut holes one by one into the bowl of melted green candy while it is still on the double boiler; lift out with a fork, letting the excess drip off. Place on the sheet pan. Secure a candy eye to the middle of each coated donut hole.
  4. Melt the red melting wafers according to the package instructions, approximately 2 minutes in a microwave or 3 to 5 minutes over a double boiler. Put the melted red candy into a piping bag and snip off the end.
  5. Pipe vertical lines of the melted red candy on the donut holes to resemble veins.
  6. Set aside to set for 15 minutes before serving.

These were easy and fun to make! Used a dab of white candy coating left from make dipped pretzels and a black circular sprinkle for iris and pupil. I did a zig zag pattern for the bloodshot veins like Alex did!
