Spooky Spider Peanut Butter Cookies

These spooky spider peanut butter cookies are the perfect treat for Halloween! With their gooey peanut butter centers and chocolate spider legs, they’re both cute and delicious. Plus, they’re easy to make, even for novice bakers.

Nutrition Facts (per cookie):

  • Calories: 150-200 (depending on size and decorations)
  • Fat: 8-10g
  • Carbohydrates: 18-20g
  • Protein: 3-4g

Prep Time: 30 minutes Cook Time: 8-10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • ¾ cup creamy peanut butter (180g)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened (110g)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar (100g)
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar (100g)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour (180g)
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • Reese’s Mini Peanut Butter Cups
  • Melted chocolate for legs (or black frosting)
  • Candy eyes

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, cream together the peanut butter, butter, sugars, and salt until light and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Scoop dough by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

Immediately after removing the cookies from the oven, press a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup into the center of each cookie. Once the cookies have cooled completely, use melted chocolate to create spider legs. Add candy eyes for a spooky touch.

    Tips:

    • Use room temperature ingredients for easier mixing.
    • For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the dough.
    • Get creative with your decorations! Use different colored candies or sprinkles to personalize your cookies.

    Enjoy these spooky and delicious treats with your family and friends!
