CHOCOLATE WEB AND SPIDER-

On a sheet of parchment paper draw an 11 inch circle with a pen or pencil and draw a spider web on it, extending some of ends beyond circle.

Tear off a large corner of the paper and on it draw a spider.

Turn drawings over onto a large baking sheet.

In a metal bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water melt chocolate chips, stirring until smooth.

Transfer chocolate to a pastry bag fitted with a #3 plain tip (slightly smaller than 1/8 inch).

(Alternatively, form a makeshift pastry bag: Transfer chocolate to a small sealable plastic bag and seal bag, pressing out excess air.

Squeeze chocolate to one corner of bag and snip off about 1 inch from corner making a small hole.

) Pipe chocolate on web, beginning with spokes, and on spider.

Freeze web and spider on baking sheet until very firm, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
