Oh no, you forgot Halloween! Don’t worry — these PB+J pretzel spiders can be made at the last minute

If Halloween just happens to sneak up on you this year, this is a festive last-minute lunch or dinner you can make for the kiddos before they rush out to trick-or-treat.

(Of course, if you’re supermom and want to go completely over the top this Halloween, this recipe will work for you too.)

You will need:

  • Peanut butter and jelly sandwich (I used an Uncrustable; you can also make one from scratch)
  • Pretzel sticks
  • Chocolate chips

In just a few seconds, you can turn an ordinary peanut butter and jelly sandwich into a Halloween spider. It’s so simple — and so perfect for exhausted or forgetful parents.

LONDON - FEBRUARY 06: An employee has her hair rinsed after an application of bull semen and katera treatment at Hari's Salon on February 6, 2007 in London, England. A new, alternative and intense conditioning treatment at a Chelsea hair salon, Hari's uses organic pedigree Angus bull semen, fresh from Brooklet Farm in Cheshire. The substance's pure protein, combined with katera, a protein-rich plant root, penetrates each shaft and deeply nourishes the hair. (Photo by Daniel Berehulak/Getty Images)
