PB&J Spiders

 

Ingredients: Bread

                   Peanut butter

                   Jelly

                   Pretzel sticks

                   Mini chocolate chips or raisins

 

Make a PB&J as you normally would. Once you finish cut it into circles with a knife or cookie cutter and put the pretzel sticks inside with four on each side. Finally, top it off with two mini chocolate chips or raisins for eyes. Feel free to mix this recipe up by using a unique flavor of jelly, or substituting the peanut with honey or a different nut butter.
