easy mini donut spiders – easy Halloween treat kids can make

Looking for a fun, easy Halloween craft you can do with your kids that won’t take a lot of prep time? How about these cute mini donut spiders? They’re easy to put together – even my three year old was able to make one – and they don’t take too many supplies. Plus they’re pretty tasty. As evidenced by the fact that mine immediately started “mysteriously” disappearing.

awesome mini donut spiders! what a fun halloween treat to make with the kids.

All you need are large pretzel twists, mini donuts, M&Ms, and a little frosting or chocolate (I always have chocolate chips on hand, so that’s what I used).

donut-pretzel-spiders-halloween-easy-fun-kid-craft

1 – Use a sharp knife to cut the two curved sides off a pretzel. 2 – Carefully push 8 pretzels curves into the top of a mini donut to form legs. Press slowly so you don’t snap the pretzels. 3 – Melt a little chocolate in a sandwich bag or place a bit of frosting in a sandwich bag. Clip off a tiny corner and pipe some chocolate/frosting onto the mini donut, and use it to stick two M&Ms on for eyes.

      That’s a great idea, I’m going to do this for my daughter’s birthday party. She wants a ‘bug’ themed party, who am I to say no right?

    We made this for Halloween, and I thank you so much for the idea. However, it was a bitter-sweet victory, since I’ve been forced to keep making them even today 🙂 Guess what our Christmas treat will be? Yup. Spiders.
