Friday Foodie: Halloween Zombie Cookies - Butterfinger Shortbread Eyeballs! (Up to my eyeballs in sweetness)

Every once in awhile you have to make something that isn't healthy but taste so good…


BUTTERFINGER SHORTBREAD EYEBALLS 


Ingredients: 

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened ever so gently
½ cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon salt
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, skillfully sifted
½ cup walnuts, chopped like a boss
1 cup chopped NESTLÉ®BUTTERFINGER® BITES Candy
½ cup NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE®Premier White Morsels, melted to perfection
NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Semi-Sweet Chocolate Mini Morsels
Red icing
1 bag gummy candies


Directions:

1. Cream together butter and powdered sugar. Add in vanilla and salt.

2. Sift together salt and flour. Take the sifted flour mixture and mix in with creamed butter mixture until just combined. Mix in chopped walnuts and Butterfinger Bites. Chill dough for 1 hour.

3. Take small spoonfuls and form into balls. Place on parchment-lined baking sheets.

4. Bake at 400° F for 10 minutes.

5. Set on cooling rack. Once completely cool, dip top side of balls in melted white chocolate and place gummies in center to form iris. Then use melted white chocolate to stick mini chocolate chips to iris (these form the pupil). Once white chocolate sets, draw in veins with red icing.
