    Cut gumdrop crosswise into thirds. Place small rounded end, rounded side up, on brownie for spider body. Cut 4 thin strips from each remaining gumdrop slice for legs; place on each side of spider body.

Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Ingredient Substitution: A gummy spider, available at candy shops in time for Halloween, is a good substitution for the gumdrop spider.
  • Tip 2
    Microwave Option: To melt the chocolate chips for the web design, place them in a small microwave-safe container. Microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds to 1 1/2 minutes, stirring once during cooking.
