Ever get something in your head, like you want to make cute spider cookies? Well, I set out to make pumpkin spider cookies (and I did), and I made a few batches until I was satisfied…but Erik gave them a thumbs down. So I opted for an old recipe, and spidered those instead.
It’s pretty easy to make cookie-spiders, I did it two different ways.
One (above):
Take cooling cookies (I used these and these), put a chocolate blob in the middle and then “paint” legs outward either with a toothpick or a brush.
Or make round chocolates with a mold like this. As they start melting down, make cute little spider legs.
See? easy peasy.
Happy Halloween!
