Fudge Spiders

To make Fudge Spiders, you will need:

• A saucepan
• A spatula or spoon for stirring
• 18 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 14-ounce can of sweetened condensed milk
• 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
• Red licorice strings
• Red Hots cinnamon candies

1. Place the chocolate chips and condensed milk in a saucepan and cook them over low heat, stirring occasionally until the chips have fully melted.
2. Remove the pan from heat and stir in the vanilla.
3. Chill the mixture for two hours or until firm.
4. Roll the fudge mixture into ball shapes.
5. Use red licorice strings to form legs next to the fudge balls, and then add Red Hots for the eyes.
6. Keep the Fudge Spiders chilled until you are ready to serve them.

Tip: As an alternative, make this recipe with white chocolate chips and cut the fudge into ghost-shapes. Or, add orange food coloring and make pumpkin-shaped fudge.
