When you are living with 4 boys, you get used to having some really strange requests for their birthday. Halloween has always been my favorite time to make fun food creations with my boys so when my son requested an Eyeball Cake for his birthday, we needed something spooky-fun to take to his class at school as well. These Eyeball Donuts made the cut and were the perfect and easy Halloween treat.
Eyeball Donuts
We love Halloween around here! My youngest boys have been busy decorating the entire house and making decorations such as Balloon Ghosts. We end up making these Eyeball Donuts every year because they are so simple to make! No baking required. 😉
How to Make Eyeball Donuts
Supplies needed for Eyeball Donuts:
- Hostess Powdered Mini Donuts
- Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
- Lifesavers Gummies
- Red Decorating Gel
The directions are very simple and quite straight forward.
Step 1: Use a dab of writing gel or frosting to “stick” the chocolate chip to the LifeSaver Gummies.
Step 2: Use another dab of frosting/gel to stick the LifeSaver Gummies to the donuts so they stay in place.
Step 3: Draw the blood vessels on the eyes with the red decorating gel.
Step 4: Eat!
I typically like to bake my own treats but by using these Hostess mini-donuts I cut out the majority of the time it would typically take to make this treat. Plus it was so easy that my boys were able to get involved in the creation. I hear they were a hit with the kids at school!
