I tried these out this weekend and only had two cookies survive with all their legs! Christine, I don't know how you managed to get so many to stay intact, but I salute you. I've named the two survivors Clive and Mildred

Spooky ๐ป
Zoeayn Pollard
These are awesome!! Just wondering if they could be made by dipping them in chocolate or something? Thanks
Diane Letulier
@Christine where did you get the spiderweb little lamps on the fireplace?
Maya
if you simply can't face using vegan butter and non dairy milk (doesn't need a google search - they're in every major supermarket), just substitute butter and milk. :) But hey - might be worth trying something new too!
Jennifer Faria
This is the project that FINALLY made me buy an airbrush ๐

I came here to say this

I loooove these ๐ญโค๏ธ. I want to try them out now and in all the beautiful variety of colors of tarantula species. Also, the soundtracks for this and the pumpkin have felt so nostalgic to me. I was getting real Legend and Secret Garden vibes from them somehow. I have fallen behind in keeping up with crafts and art recently. Had the day off today and have felt so happy to reconnect with the channel.
Racheal Jones
I love how Rachel is so "good enough", while Christine is "patience and perfection." It's a wonderful mix!
Willow Birch
Just watched Rachel Masky do this on YouTube....hilarious.
Margaux Allard
These are just beautiful! The music is awesome as well!!!
Fia Kavanagh
No idea why but I wanted to see you eat it SO BAD ๐
Jenny McKinsey
These are arachnological (goose bump inducing) perfection (of course because Christine did it), which is why I can't make them. I know that tarantulas and most spiders are considered harmless, but my brain irrationally always equates them with being cringe-inducing shamans of doom and scariness. The Bo Burnham song โSpiderโ pretty much sums me up. If I made these cookies I would forget completely and waltz clumsily into my kitchen to make my cup of joe the next morning with a bit of dreams still in my eyes, only to look out over our kitchen counter and see the perceived threat of 20 pointy pairs of fangs. I would squeak out a blood curdling screech to the heavens like an adrenaline pumped banshee, and If I could even find the words I would probably shout at my husband from the kitchen (something heโs heard many times before) โAHHHHHH holy s----- what the f------are those?! Call the f----------- exterminator!โ or simply, in the case of 20 (albeit cookie) tarantulas, โBurn the condo down!โ The neighbors would then peer suspiciously toward our home over their morning coffee, with their eyes widened to the sound of screams. They would think "Well, something terrible must have happened to that strange woman..." and presto, we are now "The 'Burbs'" Klopeks of our neighborhood. XD Happy spooky season everyone!

Lovely!! ๐ค๐ธ๐ฏ๐

Delightfully horrifying. ๐ฑ๐ท๐

Iโm wondering do you chill the dough every so often because shortbread is best baked chilled. So with all the fiddling I can imagine they donโt stay cold.
Melissa
Good idea! I'll have to try that. Thank you Juls
Juls Mei
I was really trying to imagine if I'd even be able to pick one up, let alone eat one. I did wonder if she'd take a bite at then end as well...
Juls Mei
You could try to pause the video/screen shot and just trace hers from the computer screen, like a light box
Kimberly H.
I think Iโll stick to a cookie mold using your recipe, but it will nowhere come near the absolute perfection of these ๐ท
Leslie Langenegger
Me too!
Aunt Debbie Halloween
I love your spiders! Your dress was beautiful also!
Dianna Porretta
Very Good. Would love to see an episode creating one of your beautiful gowns or dresses.. I love your style!
Enrique Rivera
Wow! What an incredible creation!! I can taste them now. You are always worth the wait C Mc C. Howwwwwwll!!!!
Welikemeatloaf
From my part of the kitchen, Iโm going to open a package of Halloween Oreos and call it a day!
Welikemeatloaf
Cripes, this is nuts! Iโm exhausted just watching it! If anyone makes these, please post how successful you were. T
Wendy Exley
Thank you!
Tammy R Dowden
CREEPY cookies! I'm not crazy about spiders, but these I could deal with. I'm imagining them positioned around a cake--or a haunted gingerDEAD house? ;-)
Racheal Jones
Ooooo so creepy! I love them. The shaved chocolate hair really brought it all together! And was that new music at the end, Grant? Wonderfully eerie!
Melissa
In other projects I believe she said she preferred Miyoko's
Brittany Male
The new music towards the end of the episode was hauntingly wonderful! and I can't believe Christine completes projects that are so technical and time consuming IN BETWEEN large projects. it's insane that this was a "small" project to tide us over. She never ceases to blow my mind
Wendy Exley
@christinemcconnell, what is your preferred brand of plant based butter?
Dora Villanueva
Christine, you are so zen. You are truly the Mrs. Rogers of your very own spooky and kooky wonderful realm. Loved the spidersโฆ ๐ค๐ค๐ค๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐๐๐
Jane Good
So creepy and fun! I just love all the detail.
Aimee G
So amazing!!
Mji X
I'll be honest, my arachnophobia kicked into high gear, and I can't imagine seeing one on a plate in front of me, but I enjoyed this episode very much!
Kitty Baumont
yeahhhh
Karina Lanza
Love this! Wished I could have seen one being eaten!!!
Wendy Ho
Would you ever consider filming in 4k? I love to see all the detail in your craft!
Jenna Windham
I just like saying pedipalp now
Sarah Kane
I was literally just wondering how you did these the other day because I wanted to make them for Halloween! And plant based too, I'm so excited to try these, Thank you!
VStreet
They look so excellent!
Allison Pagano-Speers
So realistic and I love that you bake plant based and the music makes them come to life even more! Is the guard around the mixer to protect curious kitty paws?
Anna Radaelli
They looked awesome and totally like tarantulas! As always your attention to detail is bar none!
Elinor Lee
lol I was like...hmmm...am I able to watch this without my skin crawling haha
Kristin Wright
My 12 yo son and I watched this and now all he wants to do is try to make these. He said that they look exactly like their pet tarantula at school. And, I love,love,love that you know your anatomy (from an anatomy professor โค๏ธ)
Melissa
Omg I love these and can't wait to try making them! Christine you are the best and you and this community bring so much joy to my life โค๏ธ I can't get my drawing quite right. Christine would you consider maybe offering a template those of us who aren't able to draw, could print out and use? Anything else crafty or creative I can usually wing but drawing more than a stick figure always comes out demented and weird.
Paige Phoa
Always in awe at the attention to detail. Once again, thank you for quality content. Especially during the best month of the year. ๐๐
Charlotte du Plessis
Lol me 2!
Brenda Fairbanks
Creepiest cookies ever! These are amazing ๐ค๐ท
Elinor Lee

Karysa HorrorHoneysKitchen
Oh I love these๐ค I feel like youโre really back to your roots with these, theyโre dreadfully adorable ๐ท๏ธ๐ธ๏ธ
Lisa Kay Brown
You are so talented Christine! These Tarantula cookies are beautiful and wonderfully creepy! The process looks somewhat daunting, but I love a challenge, so I'm 100 % going to try making them. The local goblins will just go berserk over them, even if they even just look close to the way they are supposed to. I'll keep trying until nobody says "what is that supposed to look like"? LOL Thanks!
Amanda Williams
Love!!
robin dewelles
Very amazing.
Alyce
