You just need Cocoa Pebbles, butter, mini pretzels, marshmallows, and some fruit tootsie rolls!
Once you have everything mixed together and cooled in your baking pan, you can start to bring your Cocoa Pebbles Spiders to life!
Don’t forget the eyes!
Or the teeth!
Don’t they just look spookily-delicious?

What a cute twist on the rice krispy treats. I enjoy cocoa pebbles. I don’t have young children so I’ll just make a pan of these.
Save one for me 🙂
Cool. I just got some Fruity Pebbles but it would still work I suppose!
Colorful Spiders would be fun too 🙂
These would be very easy and fun to make with my little niece!
My son is deathly afraid of spiders. (He’s 26) But I would love to make these and get a giggle out of him opening a box full of edible spiders.
At least these spiders are not real and look deliciously edible. This would make for a scary afternoon.
These are about the only spiders you’ll see me having any contact with! (Plus I get to bite them and not vice versa!)
Oh those are so cute! Carter loves Cocoa Pebbles! I have to make these for Halloween! Fun idea!
The creepy crawlers look like fun. The kids would them.

These sound like fun to make. Will try them with the special needs students this Friday!
The grandkids LOVE Fruity & Cocoa Pebbles – so we usually have these cereals in the pantry. I hate spiders – this will give me a chance to chomp on one 🙂

I never would have thought of using cocoa pebbles instead of rice krispies. I love this idea. It’s very cute, creative, and a lot of fun for kids.
These would be fun to make. When I first looked at them I thought it was Angry Birds.
This is so cute! I think my girls would love them! I will have to save this when we work on the letter S we can make spiders!
