Halloween Chocolate Chip Cookies With Spiders

Unfortunately they look very similar to other big blakc spiders such as the trap door and mouse spiders.

Recipe Summary Halloween Chocolate Chip Cookies With Spiders

I love chocolate chip cookies, so when I was baking for Halloween I turned the chocolate chips into little spiders. I only drew 3 legs on each side, there wasn't room for 4, so my spiders were little 6-legged creatures.

Ingredients | Japanese Funnel Web Spider Bite

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon baking powder

1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature

¾ cup white sugar

¾ cup packed brown sugar

2 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 ½ cups semisweet chocolate chips, divided

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Combine flour, baking soda, salt, and baking powder in a large bowl and stir with a fork to mix ingredients well.

Combine butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add eggs and vanilla extract and beat until smooth and fluffy. Add in flour mixture, 1 cup at a time, and mix in with a spatula until well incorporated. Fold in 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips until well combined.

Drop cookies onto ungreased baking sheets. Pour 1/2 cup chocolate chips into a bowl. Push about 3 to 4 chocolate chips onto each cookie, tip-side down, to make the spider bodies.

Bake in the the preheated oven until edges are golden, 10 to 15 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack.

Melt remaining 1/2 cup chocolate in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each melting, 1 to 3 minutes. Spoon melted chocolate into a piping bag with a small tip and draw little legs on each side of the spider bodies to create spider legs.

I ended up only drawing 3 legs on each side of the spider for lack of space - it works just as well. If you draw 4 legs on each side, the spiders look more like suns.

Instead of a piping bag, you can use a small plastic bag and cut a tiny hole in one of the corners.
