Ingredients

• 1 cup of butter or margarine softened
• 3/4 cup of white sugar
• 3/4 cup of brown sugar
• 1 tsp of vanilla
• 1/2 tsp of water
• 2 eggs
• 2 1/4 cup of flour
• 1 tsp of baking soda
• 1 tsp of salt
• 1 cup of chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup of chocolate chips for decorating

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375F.
Mix butter, sugar, vanilla and water until creamy. Beat in eggs. Add flour, baking soda and salt. Stir in chocolate chips.
Drop my rounded teaspoon onto a greased or lined baking sheet. Make sure there are a few chocolate chips on the top of each cookie to make your spider after. You can just place a few on top if necessary. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until they start to brown.
Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
While the cookies are cooling place the extra chocolate chips in a small microwavable bowl. Heat for 30 seconds at a time, taking out and stirring each time, until they are melted and smooth.
Place the melted chocolate in a piping bag with a small, plain tip. You can also use a small decorating squeeze bottle or even a sandwich bag with the corner cut out.
Pipe a head and legs onto some of the chocolate chips. That’s it! Allow the chocolate to set completely before storing.
