Instructions
repare the Cookie Mixture
- Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, powdered sugar, and graham cracker crumbs. Mix until well combined and a dough forms.
- Shape the Cookies: Using your hands, form small balls of the mixture (about 1 inch in diameter) and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Melt the Chocolate
- Melt Chocolate Chips: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth and fully melted.
Assemble the Spiders
- Dip Cookies: Using a fork, dip each cookie ball into the melted chocolate, making sure to coat it evenly. Place the chocolate-covered cookie back on the parchment paper.
- Add Legs: Quickly insert four pretzel sticks into each side of the cookie for spider legs before the chocolate sets.
- Create Eyes: Place two chocolate chips on top of each cookie for the spider’s eyes.
Chill the Cookies
- Chill: Place the cookies in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.
