Preparation: 15 minutes

Cooking: 10 minutes

Total: 25 minutes

Serves:

Ingredients

1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
48 chocolate candy eyes
12 small pretzel sticks

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the peanut butter mixture and mix until just combined.
Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each ball slightly with the back of a fork to create a criss-cross pattern.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown around the edges.
Remove from the oven and immediately press two candy eyes onto each cookie. Insert 4 pretzel sticks into each cookie to resemble spider legs.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
