These edible eyeballs are a fun Halloween treat made from pretzels, white chocolate, and a few other ingredients. Just bake the chocolate onto pretzels, add red sprinkles and a chocolate chip pupil, then chill until firm. They stay crisp and are ready to gross out your guests in about 20 minutes.

Ingredients

Round, oval or square pretzels
White chocolate disks (like Wilton, found at a craft store)
Chocolate chips
Red jimmies (that's what I call them you may call them sprinkles)

Directions

Arrange your pretzels in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Center one white chocolate disk on top of each pretzel.
Bake at 350°F for about 2½ to 3 minutes, until the chocolate looks glossy but hasn't fully melted through.
Take the sheet out of the oven and top each chocolate disk with red jimmies.
Press one chocolate chip upside down into the middle of each white chocolate circle to form the pupil.
Chill in the refrigerator or a cold garage for 20 minutes; they'll stay firm until you're ready to serve.
