Ingredients (makes 8):

1/2 cup of nut butter of choice (cashew is more neutral in taste)

1/2 cup plus 2tbsp ground almonds (can substitute for more protein or oat flour)

2 heaped tbsp of MaxiNutrition MaxClear in Cola Flavour

2-3 tbsp maple syrup

Pinch of salt

To Decorate:

150g dark chocolate, melted with 2tsp coconut oil

16 edible decorative eyes

Method:

Stir together all ingredients until well combined. Roll into balls (if too sticky, add a touch more protein or ground almonds).

Dunk in dark chocolate, then place on a lined baking tray. Use the chocolate to create spider legs, ensuring the chocolate is attached to the spider's body. 

Stick decorative eyes onto the spiders while the chocolate is still melted, then chill in the fridge to firm. Enjoy!
