Deliciously spooky spider NYC Cookies with milk and dark chocolate chips, and Rolo chocolate spiders! <\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Can we appreciate these for a second? They’re not spooky or scary at all… they are in fact just utterly delicious cookies that I am totally in love with. <\/p>\n

These cookies are giant, chunky, chocolatey and SPOOKALICIOUS! Yes that’s right, spookalicious. <\/p>\n

Halloween bakes<\/h3>\n

Oh yes, that’s right… Halloween baking time. I will say that I have always been a little slack in the halloween baking department, so this year I wanted to start with a bang and do an insanely popular request of a bake… Spider NYC Cookies! <\/p>\n

It’s quite easy to see that they are just my regular NYC Cookies<\/a> with slightly subpar ‘spiders’ on top, but I love that. They’re easy, spookalicious and I want to eat the entire batch. <\/p>\n

Even if I am slightly behind, I do love a halloween bake – my pumpkin spice latte cake<\/a>, my pumpkin cupcakes<\/a>, bloody halloween cake<\/a> etc… they are all amazing. <\/p>\n

Cookies<\/h3>\n

So these cookies are INSANE and amazing. They are NYC style cookies so that means they are giant, delicious and gooey. They are big, and they are meant to be big. IF you wanted to make smaller cookies, I’m sorry.. but they’re not New York cookies any more. <\/p>\n

The cookie dough works so wonderfully so thats why I used the same base recipe as my classic NYC chocolate chip cookies<\/a>. This post is just meant to be about inspiration for a halloween bake, so the actual cookie doesn’t matter. <\/p>\n

You can use a triple chocolate cookie<\/a>, a red velvet cookie<\/a>, or even my oreo NYC Cookies<\/a> if you fancied and so on. There are no rules to the cookie dough. <\/p>\n

Chocolate <\/h3>\n

For these cookies, just like the classics, I used a mixture of milk chocolate chips<\/a> and dark chocolate chips<\/a>. I just adore the combination of the slightly sweeter and slightly bitter chocolates together. <\/p>\n

Just like with any other cookie really, you can use other chocolates and combinations. White, milk, dark, flavoured and so on – they all work well! <\/p>\n

I did then use the chocolate to melt and make the legs of the spiders, which I can appreciate I haven’t done very well, but it was meant to be a bit of fun. <\/p>\n

Spiders<\/h3>\n

Once the cookies are out of the oven I let them cool ever so slightly and then I press in my Rolos for the body of the spiders. You can use whatever you want for the body of the spider that you like – you could even just one Rolo, or a little Rolo and a regular Rolo… it’s up to you!<\/p>\n

I decided on using two as I wanted a head and a body, but I wanted to fit the edible eyes<\/a> onto the spiders. However, you could use:<\/p>\n
