Steps:
- Beat the peanut butter and butter with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Beat in the sugar and vanilla. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Roll chilled dough into small, eyeball-sized balls and place on 2 baking sheets lined with wax paper. Refrigerate for another 30 minutes.
- Melt the white chocolate and shortening in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each melting, for 1 to 3 minutes (depending on your microwave). Do not overheat or chocolate will scorch. Dip each eyeball into the white chocolate and transfer to the waxed paper until the chocolate has set. You can chill them in the refrigerator.
- Stir a few drops of blue food coloring into the remaining melted white chocolate. Make a round "iris" on the top of the cooled eyeball and press a mini chocolate chip in the center for a "pupil." For an extra spooky bloodshot eyeballs take a toothpick dipped in red food coloring and make squiggly lines on the eye.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Grease or spray bottoms and sides of three 8-inch round cake pans.

Tips:
- Use a food processor to quickly and easily grind the oats into flour. If you don't have a food processor, you can also use a blender or a rolling pin to crush the oats.
- Be sure to chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Use a small cookie scoop to drop the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet. This will help to ensure that the cookies are all the same size and shape.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set around the edges and the middles are still slightly soft. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- To make the icing, simply whisk together the powdered sugar, corn syrup, and water until smooth. If the icing is too thick, add a little more water. If the icing is too thin, add a little more powdered sugar.
- Use a toothpick or a small spoon to apply the icing to the cookies. For a more realistic eyeball effect, apply a small amount of red icing to the center of each cookie.
- Let the icing set completely before enjoying the cookies.
Conclusion:
These spooky eyeball cookies are the perfect Halloween treat. They are easy to make and are sure to be a hit with kids and adults alike. With their realistic eyeball design, these cookies are sure to add a touch of fun and creepiness to your Halloween party. So gather your ingredients and give these cookies a try.
