Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Spooky Spider Sandwiches
  1. Begin by placing your bread slices on a spacious cutting board. Using a round biscuit cutter, cut out the center of each slice, creating delightful circular openings. Set the cut-out centers aside for a possible mini sandwich snack later.
  2. Next, take four of the bread slices that you’ve cut and generously spread a thick layer of creamy peanut butter on them. On the remaining four slices, lavishly spread sweet strawberry jelly.
  3. Carefully place each peanut butter slice on top of a jelly-covered slice, aligning the edges to create perfect sandwiches. Gently press them together to ensure they hold their shape.
  4. To transform your sandwiches into spooky spiders, take three pretzel sticks for each sandwich and insert them firmly into each side.
  5. Finally, cap off your Spooky Spider Sandwiches by placing two candy eyes on top of each sandwich.
