PEANUT BUTTER SPIDER COOKIES

Here is a fun recipe from Betty Crocker.  This would be great for all you moms who have to take a goodie to a Halloween Party or school function.  You could also make your own Peanut Butter cookies, but the Betty Crocker mixes are really very good!  What little or big goblin wouldn't like these for a treat. 

YOU WILL NEED:

1 pouch Betty Crocker peanut butter cookie mix

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon water

1 egg

36 Rolo Candies
Black or red string licorice

1/3 cup (72) miniature candy-coated chocolate baking bits

Betty Crocker black decorating gel (from 0.68-oz tube)

DIRECTIONS:

1. Heat oven to 375°F. In medium bowl, stir cookie mix, oil, water and egg until dough forms.

2. Shape dough into 36 (1-inch) balls. On ungreased cookie sheets, place 2 inches apart.

3. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until light golden brown. Immediately press 1 chewy caramel in center of each cookie. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks.

4. Cut licorice into 8 (2-inch) pieces for each spider. Attach legs by sticking into chewy caramel. Use baking bits for eyes and black gel to make pupils in eyes.
