Spooky Spider Treats

These Spooky Spider Treats are so easy and fun to make with your kids. They are the perfect last minute Halloween treat.

This is a very kid-friendly recipe. Your kids can pretty much do the entire thing without much assistance. My daughter is four and made these pretty much by herself. I only melted the chocolate, attached the legs and made the hourglass shape with icing. We had a great time making these Halloween treats.
