Spiderweb Munch Recipe {Free Printable Recipe Card}

I saw this recipe in our local newspaper and anything with 5 or less ingredients 

(and 2 of those being chocolate and peanut butter) I have to try!

All it takes is toasted rice cereal, peanut butter, semi-sweet chocolate chips (I used milk chocolate because I LOVE it) and powdered sugar.

Start by melting your bag of chocolate chips and 3/4 cup peanut butter in a saucepan on low/medium heat, stirring constantly. When it is completely melted, remove from heat and add 1/3 cup powdered sugar, stir vigorously until all the lumps are gone. 

I could just eat the pot of hot chocolate and peanut butter and be happy.

Pour one cup of your mixture into a bowl with 3 cups of toasted rice cereal in it until it is covered.

(I just eye balled one cup, I didn't want to deal with the mess of measuring out one cup)

After it is all mixed in well, put on an ungreased cooking sheet and form into a circle with about a one inch rim with your spatula (I tried my hands and made a huge mess, don't recommend it)

Pour the rest of the chocolate mixture in the circle. Put peanut butter in a heavy duty bag, cut a little hole in the corner and pipe concentric circles around the middle. With a toothpick, start at the middle and draw a line out forming your spiderweb.

Refrigerate for 30 minutes, cut into wedges and ENJOY!

I have seen these fun hats in so many stores that are more than I am willing to pay for paper and some embellishments on top of a pumpkin that I can get for 98 cents at Walmart.

some fun yarn

another thank you to aimee from sprik space for the pattern pieces used for the backgrounds.

 Cut out the hat, strip of paper for the fan and the circle.
Start folding the strip of paper back and forth.

Glue (or staple) the ends together so it forms a circle.

 
Lay the zig zag circle on the table and push flat
Glue the circle on top and hold it down for a few seconds.

To make the hat, roll the edges to form a cone and tape, staple or glue one side on top of the other.

Glue your yarn around the bottom edge of the hat - I went around twice to make the trim thicker.

Glue your paper fan on the hat.

To make the pom pom for the top:

Wrap the yarn around 2 fingers (3 if you want it thicker) about 20 times.

Gently pull off your fingers and place in the middle of a strip of yarn.

Tie a knot around the middle of the bundle with the strip of yarn.

Cut the loops on either end and fluff to make a pom pom.

Glue your pom pom on top of your hat and put on your pumpkin!
