Click here for recipe: BROWNIE SPIDERS

INGREDIENTS

1 package brownie mix OR purchased brownie bites

1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

2 cups crispy chow mien noodles OR pretzels

18 candy eyeballs

INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare and bake brownies according to package directions. Cool completely in pan on a wire rack.

In a microwave, melt chocolate chips; stir until smooth.

Remove 1 tablespoon melted chocolate to a small bowl; reserve for attaching eyes.

Add noodles to remaining chocolate; stir gently to coat.

Spread onto a waxed paper-lined baking sheet, separating noodles slightly.

Freeze until set.

Cut nine brownies with a 2-1/4-in. round cutter for spider bodies. Attach eyeballs using reserved melted chocolate. With a bamboo skewer or toothpick, poke eight holes in top of each spider for inserting legs. Insert a coated noodle into each hole. Store in an airtight container.

Alternately: Use brownie bites from your local grocery store instead of baking. Break pretzel knots to create “spider legs” instead of chow mien noodles.
