Chocolate Six-Legged Spider

Okay, so here is the next recipe for our Halloween Contest.  It was sent in by Jami.  I loved these.  They are so easy and look great.  I left the comments that she sent me in her email at the bottom of the recipe.  This is one she came up with herself and I really liked what she had to say about the recipe.

Ingredients:  (As many as you want - for each marshmallow, you'll need three whole pretzels, and two red hots.)
Marshmallows
Pretzels (the skinny, short stick kind) - broken in halves.
Chocolate Chips (for melting)
Red Hots

Stab three pretzel halves on each side of marshmallow for a total of six.  Melt the chocolate (on low, higher heat somehow solidifies the chocolate).  Dip end of marshmallow in chocolate.  Place on wax paper, chocolate-side up.  Before chocolate cools, place two red hots on top for eyes.  Voila!

I tried to cover the whole thing in chocolate, which was my original idea, but they just didn't hold up that well.  So, we just made chocolate faces.  My kids loved them!

It's so easy, though.  My daughter helped me.
Jami :)

Thank you Jami for your recipe, and Good Luck in the competition.
