Step 1: In a food processor, grind the chocolate sandwich cookies into fine crumbs.
Step 2: Add the cream cheese to the cookie crumbs and mix until fully combined to form a dough-like consistency.
Step 3: Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Step 4: Melt the white chocolate chips or candy melts according to the package instructions until smooth.
Step 5: Remove the cookie balls from the refrigerator and dip each ball into the melted white chocolate using a fork. Let any excess chocolate drip off before placing them back onto the lined baking sheet.
Step 6: While the coating is still wet, press a candy eyeball onto the center of each coated ball, slightly sinking it into the chocolate.
Step 7: Use the red gel food coloring to draw squiggly lines radiating outward from the candy eyeball to mimic veins.
Step 8: Melt the dark chocolate chips and transfer the melted chocolate into a small piping bag or a resealable plastic bag with a tiny corner snipped off.
Step 9: Pipe small circles or dots around the candy eyeball to add a spooky touch.
Step 10: Allow the completed 'eyeballs' to set in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes until the chocolate firms up.
Step 11: Serve chilled on a platter and enjoy your creepy creation!
