Equipment

  • 9x13-inch baking pan
  • Large Pot
  • Microwave
  • Piping bag

Ingredients
  

  • 6 tablespoons salted butter
  • 16 ounce package mini marshmallows
  • cup creamy peanut butter not natural
  • 7 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 8 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • 2 cups light cocoa candy melts
  • 20 mini Reese’s peanut butter cups unwrapped
  • 40 candy eyes

Instructions
 

  • Lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking pan with nonstick spray; set aside.
  • In a large pot, gently melt butter over low heat to prevent browning.
  • Once melted, add the mini marshmallows.
  • As marshmallows start to melt, stir in the peanut butter. Continue stirring constantly until completely melted and smoothly combined.
  • Take off the heat.
  • Fold in the Rice Krispies cereal.
  • Press the cereal mixture gently and evenly into the prepared pan.
  • For the topping, place chocolate chips in a microwave-safe dish.
  • Microwave for 30 seconds, then stir.
  • Stir in coconut oil, then continue microwaving and stirring in 15-second bursts until smooth.
  • Spread this melted chocolate evenly over the bars.
  • Allow to set for 30 minutes, or until firm, before slicing and decorating.
  • Remove from pan, cut into squares, and set aside.
  • To create spiders, microwave candy melts at 50% power for 30 seconds. Stir. Repeat in 30-second intervals until completely smooth.
  • Transfer melted candy to a piping bag with a small tip.
  • Place a mini Reese's peanut butter cup in the center of each square.
  • Pipe "legs" from the peanut butter cup outwards using the piping bag.
  • Dab two small dots of melted chocolate on the front of the peanut butter cup, then gently press on the candy eyes.
  • Let decorations set and cool completely before serving.
