## Tips

- With their built-in portion control, these holiday treats can be enjoyed on a special occasion.
- Keep the cookie balls refrigerated until ready to dip in the melted chocolate. Then, add balls, in batches, to bowl of melted chocolate. Use 2 forks to roll balls in chocolate until evenly coated. Remove balls with forks, letting excess chocolate drip back into bowl. Place balls in prepared pan; let stand until firm.
- Prepare using 16 oz. chocolate-flavored candy wafers.
- If chocolate becomes too thick, add up to 2 tsp. shortening to each 16 oz. of chocolate.
- Substitute candy-coated sunflower seeds for the candy eyeballs.
