    ingredients

    Making the Spooky Spider Pops

    To make these Halloween treats, I started by adding the chocolate chips and butterscotch chips to a microwave-safe bowl. Once melted, these will hold the Spooky Spider Pops together.

    Combining chocolate and butterscotch chips

    When you melt chocolate, you need to be very careful not to get it too hot. Therefore, I microwaved the chocolate/butterscotch chips on 50% power in 30-second increments. I stirred the chips after each 30-second increment to ensure that there were no hot spots. With my microwave (1100 W), it took about 2 minutes to melt the chips.

    Chips melted

    I added the peanuts and chow mein noodles to the melted chocolate/butterscotch to make the spiders. Then, I stirred the mixture with a wooden spoon to thoroughly coat the peanuts and noodles.

    Adding noodles and peanuts

    Using a 1¾-inch ice cream scoop, I dropped the spider mixture onto lollipop sticks that were on a piece of parchment paper, and added M&M’s for the eyes.

    dropping mixture into parchment

    I popped them into the refrigerator for about 20 minutes to harden.

    Finished pops

    These yummy Spooky Spider Pops are sure to be hit at your Halloween Party. Yum!
