Directions
1.
Heat oven to 375 degrees F. In medium bowl, stir cookie mix, oil, water and egg until dough forms.
2.
Shape dough into 36 (1-inch) balls. On ungreased cookie sheets, place 2 inches apart.
3.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until light golden brown. Immediately press 1 chewy caramel in center of each cookie. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks.
4.
Cut licorice into 8 (2-inch) pieces for each spider. Attach legs by sticking into chewy caramel. Use baking bits for eyes and black gel to make pupils in eyes.
