In celebration of National Chocolate Day, the Park Avenue Confectionary & General Store in Mechanicville is sharing an edible craft you can make with chocolate.
The chocolate "spider" requires four pretzel rods, an Oreo cookie, melted chocolate, sprinkles and fake eyes.
On parchment paper:
1. Break the pretzel rods in two and fan out to make the spider's eight legs
2. Drizzle melted chocolate of your choice over the pretzels
3. Dip the Oreo in melted chocolate and place in the center of the "legs"
4. Place "eyes" on the Oreo
5. Drizzle more chocolate preferably of a different type like white chocolate
6. Sprinkle the sprinkles over the "spider"
Once the chocolate hardens, enjoy.
