SCARY CRISPIE SPIDERS Makes 10-12

INGREDIENTS:

80g rice crispies; 200g dark chocolate; 5 Fruit Bowl peelers, each cut into half and peeled into 96 individual strands (retain leftover strands); 2 packs of fruit flakes (any flavour); 1-2 bags of yoghurt coated fruit flakes

METHOD

1. Line two baking trays with greaseproof paper. 2. Mix the rice crispies with the fruit flakes. 3. Melt 200g of the chocolate in a small heat-proof bowl over a pan of simmering water (be careful not to let the base of the bowl touch the water). Stir frequently with a wooden spoon until melted and smooth. 4. Remove the bowl from the heat and pour the chocolate over the Rice Crispies and fruit flakes, gently stirring with a wooden spoon until evenly coated. 5. Spoon balls of around 7cm onto the prepared baking tray and press the centre of each with the back of a spoon. Leave to set a little while you make the eyes. 6. With the remaining peeler strands, cut them, crossways, into 3mm rounds. 7. For the eyes, dab a little water onto the end of one of the rounds and then attach to a yoghurt coated fruit flake. Repeat to make 24 eyes. 8. Insert eight of the peeler strands to each ball to form the spider ‘legs’ and press two of the ‘eyes’ into the top half of the ball. 9. Chill in the fridge for two hours, or until set.
