Edible Spiders Recipe Reviews - Allrecipes.com (Pg. 3)
Reviewed: Oct. 28, 2008
We loved these and they had the best taste. I used hersheys semi sweet chocolate morsels and it made it taste more like dark chocolate. Instead of m&m's because I didnt have any I made sugar cookie icing and put it in a sandwhich bag cut the corner a very tiny bit and put eyes on the spiders that way. It was cheaper and I had the stuff on hand. If you have trouble with the chocolate covering it all dont get discouraged because they are sooo yummy and they still look like spiders even if some of the marshmallow is showing. Enjoy

My son and my nieces made these a few weeks ago and they had a blast! The end result didn't really look like spiders but they didn't care. As soon as they were made they were gobbled up! Thanks for the fun "food project".

These treats were great. I didn't use the bag or the butter. Instead I used shortening with semi-sweet & butterscotch chips, which gave a great finish to the spiders. Definitely enjoyed by all.

I only give this 2 stars because while it was a cute little idea, it didn't work out quite like it claimed it would. After melting the amount of chocolate chips and butter that it called for, the chocolate was thick like frosting and would definately NOT drizzle. I had to add much more butter and a little creamer to make it drizzle better. And putting the chocolate in the bag to be drizzled was NOT a simple task either. It got all over the zip seal and the bag didn't close properly and ended up exploding. I think the ingredients need to be altered and maybe a gallon ziploc bag should be suggested so that it is large enough that if it won't seal, it's not going to shoot chocolate everywhere when you try to use it as a squeeze bag. However, I do want to say that I made these for my toddler's daycare class and I was the only mother who actually made something for the party instead of buying a bag of candy to pass... the toddlers LOVED them! So, in the long run, it was worth the hassle ;0)

This was a cute finish but very time consuming and extremely messy.

Cute concept, but I should have read the reviews prior to starting. I had the same problem with the chocolate in the microwave as others did. I finally melted it on the stove with more butter and milk. They are currently in the fridge, hopefully they will harden! I also dropped them in the pan of melted chocolate with the help of 2 forks. That seemed to work well. Thanks for the cute idea!

Agree with the microwaving the chocolate thing - it wouldn't melt right for me. Ended up just putting chocolate chips, butter and some milk in a saucepan over low heat to get right consisitancy. Once chocolate was melted everything else was smooth sailing. The kids loved the looks of them for their holloween party!
