How to Make Halloween Spider Cookies

My favorite crafts are the kinds you eat (that’s how I fell in love with baking!). But more than that, any craft that welcomes little fingers to help is a win for me, which is why I love these Halloween spiders so much. They only take a few ingredients, don’t make a huge mess, and can occupy my kids for at least a minute or two. Plus, they're just so cute!
Ingredients
- 1 pack Double Stuff Oreos
- 1 bag thin pretzel sticks
Candy Eyeballs (these can also be found at most craft stores)
- Marshmallow Fluff
Directions
To start, pick out the fattest Oreos you have—the more room you have to poke a pretzel in, the better.
Next, break the pretzels in half as cleanly as you can.
Stick four pretzels into one side of the Oreo, then repeat on the other side to create 8 legs total.
Spread a small amount of marshmallow fluff on the back of an eyeball sprinkle and stick it on the Oreo.
Repeat with as many eyeballs as you want, until you have a little spider colony.
Enjoy as you make them, or decorate a spooky Halloween dessert table with your creations.
