SNICKERS Chocolate Spider Tarts

These cute and creepy Halloween treats taste as good as they look.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 5 minutes

Total Time: 15 minutes

Makes: 6 servings

Ingredients:

6 Snickers Fun Size, chopped
6 tbsp brick-style plain cream cheese, at room temperature
6 prebaked chocolate mini tart shells
6 tbsp crushed chocolate cookie crumbs
3 licorice strings
12 red sprinkles

Instructions:

Heat chopped Snickers Fun Size in saucepan set over medium-low heat, stirring often, for 3 to 5 minutes or until melted. Remove from heat. Let cool slightly.
Beat cream cheese until smooth; beat in melted Snickers Fun Size until blended. Spoon into tart shells; smooth tops. Sprinkle tops with even layer of cookie crumbs. Refrigerate until filling is thoroughly chilled and firm.
Cut each licorice into 16 pieces. Insert 8 licorice pieces into filling of each tart to resemble spider legs and decorate each tart with 2 red sprinkles for eyes.

Tip:

• Alternatively, use candy eyes instead of sprinkles.
• For a sweet-and-salty option, substitute pieces of pretzel twists instead of licorice for spider legs.
