Spider Cookie Cutter

Made these for Halloween and they turned out great. Be sure to use a cookie recipe that does not spread out during baking such as the "No fail" recipe on this site-- no one will be afraid of a spider with big, fat, puffy legs! I used this recipe and added about 3/4-1 C cocoa powder to make them chocolate. While the finished product turned out great (wish we could post pictures), they are a bit of work. It requires a little patience getting the legs out of the cutter when it sticks. Also, even after baking, those skinny legs are very delicate so we had a few amputees but it all worked out fine and they still looked great once decorated.
