Spider-infested Chocolate Chip Cookies Traci Kenworth   Adapted from: hungryhappenings.com   These cookies are fun and creative! I used miniature Reese’s for the bodies instead of the chips. I halved the recipe for the gluten-free ones because Jesstyn doesn’t care for cookies much and used gluten-free all-purpose flour from Pillsbury. Ingredients: 12 T. butter 1 c. packed brown sugar ½ c. granulated sugar 1 large egg 1 egg yolk 2 t. vanilla 2 1/8 all-purpose flour ½ t. salt ½ t. baking soda 12 oz. choc. Chips, divided Reese Cups-minature for bodies of spiders or 2 oz. chips for body of spiders Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Melt butter in microwave-safe bowl. Allow to cool slightly. Adds sugars and vanilla to butter and beat until blended. Mix dry ingredients and add to wet ingredients gradually. Fold about 9 oz. of chip into batter. Scoop out cookies about ¼ c. dough for each or if you like you’re cookies a bit bigger, like us, do that. Place spider bodies on. Remember to keep 2 oz. for legs. Bake about 18 mins. for the ¼ c. dough-size. Ours took 26 mins. Cool cookies. Melt chocolate chips in a double-boiler. Pour into squeeze bottle and use to make legs and heads. Allow
