Stuffed Mushroom Eyeballs Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. Place mushroom caps in an ungreased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp, stirring occasionally. Remove with a slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Discard drippings, reserving 2 teaspoons in pan., Add onion to drippings; cook and stir over medium heat 2-3 minutes or until tender. Add garlic, basil and thyme; cook 1 minute longer. Remove from heat; stir in bacon., Place about 1 teaspoon bacon mixture into each mushroom cap. Bake 7-9 minutes or until tender. Top each mushroom with a cheese ball; bake 3-4 minutes longer or until cheese is softened. Remove from oven; immediately press an olive slice on top of cheese. Insert a sword pick into each cheese ball. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Pour boiling water over the gelatin and stir to dissolve completely. Pour the mixture into ice cube trays with rounded bottoms (you should be able to fill 2 trays). Refrigerate until partially set, about 20 minutes. Push the blueberry eyeballs into the partially set gelatin and refrigerate until thoroughly set. Dip the ice cube tray in warm water for 15 to 30 seconds and run a knife around the edges of each ice cube. Turn the "eyes" out on a serving plate and refrigerate until serving time.
