Description
Delightful and easy-to-make peanut butter cookies shaped like spiders, perfect for Halloween.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup chocolate chips
- Salt (a pinch)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Beat in the egg until fully incorporated.
- Scoop tablespoons of dough and roll them into balls, spacing them a few inches apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Gently press each ball down slightly with a fork to create a crisscross pattern.
- Bake in preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden.
- Allow them to cool slightly before decorating with chocolate chips, pressing two chips onto each cookie to form the spider’s eyes.
Notes
Watch the baking time closely and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a couple of minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
