diy googly eyes

Recipe

1 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp cornstarch

1 tbsp corn syrup

2 tsp milk

Mix all ingredients together to form a paste. Scoop into a Ziploc bag and seal. Make a tiny snip in the corner to use as a frosting bag. Use wax paper (preferably) or a Silpat mat.

Let set for 24 hours on the counter.

chocolate chip, m & m’s, and nonpareils were used for my different sizes of “eyeballs”

**Nonpareils ended up being my favorite “eyeballs” since I was able to make really small eye whites and dot them with blue or multi-colored nonpareils and they added a more whimsical charm to my cookie characters.
