How to Make Oreo Cookie Spiders
This recipe is definitely one for the kids! Made with Double Stuf Oreos, Wiltons Candy Melts, candy eyes, sprinkles, and Twizzlers Pull n Peel candy. Moreover, little ones will love pulling apart the Twizzlers and helping to make this Halloween treat.
Making these Oreo Cookie Spiders couldn’t be easier. Firstly, pull apart the Twizzlers Pull n Peel and set aside twenty-four of the purple licorice strands.
Secondly, line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Then, cut two of the licorice strands in half and place the four pieces with centers touching on the cookie sheet to make the spider legs. Repeat with remaining licorice. Get the rest of the ingredients together for easy assembly.
Melt the Wiltons Candy Melts in a microwave safe bowl according to package instructions. Add a bit of the candy melts to the center of the legs to help them stay together.
Dip the Oreo in the candy melts and, using a fork to hold the bottom, let the excess coating drizzle off.
Carefully place the Oreo on the center of the spider licorice legs. Lastly, add the eyes and sprinkles. However, be sure to let the cookie spiders dry completely before moving.
