Halloween Spider Cookies


In need of a cute and easy treat for your next Halloween?  Have no fear, spider cookies are here.  With a very minimal list of ingredients, this is a fun recipe to make with the kids.


Ingredients:

Peanut butter cookie mix
Rolo chocolates
Chocolate Twizzlers or black shoe string licorice 
Reeses Pieces candy



I do not like black licorice but found these chocolate Twizzlers very yummy!

I cut each Twizzler in half with kitchen shears and then made legs in the size I wanted. 


You can purchase the mini Reese Pieces or the regular size.  I used regular in the pictures below.  



Prepare the peanut butter cookie mix according to the package.  Make sure to flatten cookie balls with fork tines, in a cross cross design (sorry for not having a pic).  Bake as directed.




Once cookies are done and still hot, place Rolo chocolate on top of each cookie.  Doing this will help melt chocolate enough to allow the licorice legs and Reeses eyes to stick. Place 4 pieces of licorice on each side of the Rolo chocolate and place two Reeses for the eyes. Dot eyes with a black icing dot if you like and then you are... done!




Happy Baking!  I hope you like!
