    3 tablespoons butter, softened
    1/2 lb white candy coating (white chocolate)
    24 brown Reese's pieces or 24 brown M&M's
    Icing

    Chill for 30 minutes, or until firm.
    In a microwave, melt white candy coating. Stir until smooth.
    Dip balls in coating, and place on waxed paper.
    Immediately press one Reese's Pieces or M&M candy on top of each eyeball for pupils. Let stand for 30 minutes, or until set.
    In a small bowl combine water, food coloring, and confectioners sugar. Mix well.
    Transfer to a heavy-duty resealable plastic bag.
    Cut a small whole in a corner of the bag.
    Pipe wavy lines downward from the candy, creating the look of bloodshot eyes.
    Store eye balls in an airtight container.
