Grape Spider Skewers with Pretzel Stick Legs

Prep Time 20 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes
Makes 12 grape spiders

Ingredients

  • 12 large red or black grapes spider bodies
  • 12 small green or red grapes spider heads
  • 96 thin pretzel sticks 8 per spider
  • 24 mini chocolate chips 2 per spider
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese or thick plain yogurt
  • 12 short cocktail skewers or toothpicks blunt-ended for kids

Instructions

  • Thread one large grape onto each skewer, leaving a short length of stick free at the front end.
  • Thread one small grape onto the free end of the skewer in front of the large grape so the two grapes touch.
  • Poke 4 pretzel sticks into each side of the large grape body, angling them downward slightly to look like legs: 8 legs total per spider.
  • Dab a tiny amount of cream cheese onto each of the two front positions on the small grape.
  • Press one mini chocolate chip onto each dab to form the spider's eyes.
  • Stand or lay the spiders on a lined tray and refrigerate until ready to serve.
