Preheat oven to 350
Prepare peanut butter cookies per the package instructions. You can use the Betty Crocker kind in the bag, or use a prepared peanut butter cookie dough like Pilsbury.
Chill dough in refrigerator for 10-15 minutes so it’s workable
Form into 1inch balls and place on a prepared and lined cookie sheet.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Do not overcook.
Remove from oven and immediately press a frozen peanut butter cup (upside down) on top of each cookie.
When all cookies have a peanut butter cup on them, next add two googly eyes to the front of one side of the peanut butter cup. They should stick because the chocolate is warm.
Move them to a wire rack and allow to cool.
While the cookies are cooling, place the chocolate chips into a microwave safe bowl and melt in 30 second increments in the microwave. Stir in between each melting session in the microwave. Chocolate holds its shape until stirred.
Pour melted chocolate into a piping bag or a ziptop sandwich page. Cut off a corner and pipe six legs onto each cookie.
Refrigerate cookies to help the chocolate set.
