These fun 4-ingredient Oreo spider treats are the cutest little treats for Halloween! Cream cheese and Oreo crumbs combine together to create a creepy and delicious spider treat the entire family will love!
Put the Oreos into a food processor until you have very fine crumbs.
18 oz. package of Oreo cookies
Take 2/3 cup of the Oreo cookies out of the processor and set them aside for later.
Cut the softened cream cheese into chunks and add it into the food processor with the rest of the Oreo crumbs. Mix together until blended well.
8 oz. cream cheese
Scoop 25 small balls of the Oreo mixture using a small spoon, tablespoon measuring cup, or a melon baller. Roll each scoop into a little ball. Place each of the balls into the set aside Oreo crumbs and coat the spider body in the Oreo crumbs.
Melt the chocolate in a small microwavable bowl, stirring about every 20 seconds until melted.
6 oz. chocolate melting wafers
Put the melted chocolate into a small squeeze bottle or a ziploc bag and make a very small cut in the corner of the bag. Pipe lines that look like spider legs (or L shapes) a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet.
Put the cookie sheet filled with the spider chocolate legs into the freezer for about 10 minutes or until they are completely hardened.
Place a small dot of melted chocolate onto a candy eyeball and place it onto the spider’s body.
50 candy eyeballs
Once the legs are hardened, put six legs into each spider’s body to finish off this cute Halloween treat!
Notes
Store these in an airtight container in the refrigerator so that the cream cheese doesn’t go bad. They’re a little tricky to store with the legs on so if you know you’re not going to serve them yet or want to make them ahead of time for a classroom party for example, store the Oreo balls in the fridge and the chocolate legs separate. Then just put them together right before you’re ready to serve.Make sets of legs a similar size so you don’t end up with little tiny legs, longer legs, and spiders full of off weird shaped and sized legs.Freeze the legs for at least ten minutes but longer is even better. You want them to be completely set before you start putting them onto the spider bodies.
