Ingredients

  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoon brown sugar
  • ¼ cup of all-purpose flour
  • Halved pretzel sticks, for legs
  • Mini vegan semi-sweet chocolate chips for eyes

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large bowl, stir together the peanut butter and sugars.
  2. In a pie pan, pour some flour and begin to roll small balls of peanut butter.
  3. Freeze for about 1 hour. Remove from the freezer and put three spider legs on each side of the ball and vegan chocolate chip as eyes (see photos for reference).
  4. Refrigerate some more if you'd like it to harden some more. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Use creamy peanut butter: If it’s too drippy/soft, you’d need to add a thickener to make a dough stiff enough to roll into balls.
  • Chill the dough: This makes it easier to roll into balls.
  • Enjoy chilled: If possible, serve these out of the fridge. The more they sit at room temperature, the softer and stickier they’ll become. To avoid mess, serve in mini cupcake cases, with napkins nearby.
