Toni Kelley

Spooky creatures and things that go bump in the night are all signs that Halloween will soon be here. Shrieks of delight ring through the night as children of all ages enjoy Haunted Houses, hayrides and trick or treating. Mountains of sugary treats are creeping ever closer as moms everywhere tremble with fear. Well here is a great way to have a healthy snack for all those ghoulish gatherings that is sure to be a spooktacular hit.

Ingredients

Peanut Butter

Ritz Crackers

Raisins

Pretzel Styx

Directions

The first step is to gather all the ghosts, witches, goblins and vampires. Next, place all your spooky ingredients on a clean dry surface. Spread some peanut butter on one side of a cracker and then place 3 or 4 pretzel styx in the peanut butter on opposite sides so that they are pointing slightly outward. These are the legs for our edible spider. Next, spread more peanut butter on another cracker and place it on top of the other cracker making sure it is slightly off center. The last step is to give your spider some eyes. Place two raisins in the peanut butter you left open between the two crackers.

There you have it, a fun, healthy, creepy snack perfect for any ghoulish affair.

Happy Halloween!
