How to Make Peanut Butter Spider Cookies
1) Bake your peanut butter cookies in the oven according to your recipe’s instructions, and let the cookies cool before decorating.
2) Add some brown icing to the center of the cookie, then pipe 3–4 horizontal lines on the left and right sides of the cookie to create the spider legs.
3) Place a mini peanut butter cup in the center of the cookie, pressing it gently into the icing before it dries.
4) Add a small amount of icing to the back of two candy eyes, then place them next to each other on the peanut butter cup.
5) Repeat the above decorating steps on the remaining cookies, then sever and enjoy!
