Spooky Spider Cookies
Serving: 12 | Time: 60 minutes

Truly, the only thing spookier than spooky spider cookies is how many calories & grams of sugar GATSBY Chocolate can save you in this recipe. This is an autumn comfort treat and fun to serve at any Halloween party this year (hopefully no one finds these too creepy!).
