Spooky Halloween Spider Cookies

The other day I made homemade raisin cookies with my little lady, which were yummy (even if I do say so myself!) You can check out the recipe here. 

We decided it wasn't enough to just have cookies, we needed to jazz them up! So we turned them into spooky Halloween spiders! It was so easy to do, and a great way to get us being creative! Check out how we did it below:

Ingredients 

Raisin cookies you have made
Maltesers
Large chocolate drops 
Coloured writing icing tubes 

method 

1. Using one of the writing icing tubes squeeze two small dollops onto the centre of your cookie. 
2. Place a malteser and large chocolate drop onto each dollop of icing. Push down slightly so that they stick. (in time the icing will set, sticking the malteser and chocolate drop in place)
3. Using your writing icing tubes draw the legs, and eyes onto the cookies.
4. Add icing spots onto the malteser, if you want the spiders to look even more spooky!
5. Repeat the process for all of your cookies
6. Enjoy eating your spooky Halloween spiders!
