• 24 Milk Chocolate Lindour Truffles, unwrapped

2. Roll cookie dough into 1-inch sized balls and roll in sugar to coat the outside
   
3. Place on a cookie sheet and bake by directions on package
4. When done cookies, take them out of the oven and press down the centers – I used the back of a melon baller, it worked PERFECT!
   
5. Once cookies are cool, melt chocolate wafers (in different bowls) and put into Ziploc baggies
6. Use the dark chocolate and pipe chocolate “spider legs” onto the cookie, also put a small amount in the bottom of the “hole” we made – as glue for the Lindour
7. Put the Lindour on the cookie, let set for just a couple minutes until the wafer chocolate hardens
   
8. Use the melted white chocolate wafers and dark chocolate to draw eyes onto the Lindours

TIPS: If you do not want to draw the eyes with chocolate, you can buy the candy eyeballs in the baking isle.
VARIATIONS: If you do not want to make Spiders, you can create any design – like this one here:

“No Crack” Cheesecake

Prep. Time: 15-mins. (approx.)
Cook Time: 35-mins. (approx.)
Yields: 8-servings

Ingredients:

• 2 (8-oz.) packages of Cream Cheese, softened
• 8-oz. Sour Cream
• 1-tbps. Vanilla Extract
• ⅔-c. Sugar + more for graham cracker crust
• 2-eggs, slightly beaten
• 1-tsp. Salt
• Keebler Graham Cracker Crumbs
• Butter

Steps:

1. Prepare graham cracker crumbs/crust with directions on box (needs sugar & butter).
   
2. Blind bake crust for about 9-mins at 350 degrees in a GREASED 9’inch spring form pan.
   
3. With an electric mixer, beat together cream cheese, sour cream, vanilla, sugar and eggs. Beat until FLUFFY.
   
4. Pour cheesecake mixture into baked&cooled graham cracker crust (reserve about a cup to a cup and a half of the mixture)
5. “Drop” cheesecake on the counter a few times to get all the air bubbles out (as this is what causes cracks; so as long as you see those little bubbles coming to the surface, keep “dropping” your cheesecake)
6. Put cheesecake on a cookie sheet, and put a couple cups of water onto the cookie sheet to create a water bath for the cheese cake.
   
7. Bake for 25-minutes at 350 degrees, then add the rest of the batter on top (as evenly as possible, be careful not to burn yourself). Bake for another 10-minutes.
   
8. Do NOT stick a toothpick in the center to check “done-ness,” as this ALSO causes cracks in cheesecakes. Use your best judgement, and make sure the cheesecake center is no longer “jiggly.”
9. Put cheesecake in the fridge, let refrigerate overnight.

SUGGESTIONS: put foil around the bottom of the spring form pan before putting water in the cookie sheet to insure no water gets into the bottom of your cheesecake
TIP: Top with your favorite pie filling or a chocolate and caramel drizzle

4. Go over holes with pudding, this is tedious because the pudding will continue to sink and soak into the holes. but continue this until the holes are “filled.” Pour the rest of pudding over the cake and spread evenly.
   
5. While the pudding soaks in, REMOVE the foil/wrapper/lid from the frsoting and microwave in 10-second intervals. Stirring between everyone, until pour able. Pour over cake.

Prep Time: 5-mins. (approx.)
Note: This recipe is for readers 21 or over!

Ingredients:

• 3-oz. Original Margarita Mix (non-alcoholic)
• 3-oz. Captain Morgan Silver Spiced Rum
• 3-oz. Orange Juice
• 3-oz. Pineapple Juice
• 2-oz. Grenadine
• 2-oz. Sprite ZERO
• Ice
• Sugar or Margarita Salt for garnish

Steps:

1.  Dip the top of your glass into a SHALLOW dish of water then immediately into a shallow dish of sugar or margarita salt
   
2. In a shaker, combine all other ingredients and SHAKE!
3. Pour into sugar or salt dipped Margarita glass
   

Money Saving Tip: If you do not already have Margarita glasses, like me, head over to your local Dollar Tree store where you can pick some up for just $1!

Tip: If you do not have Captain Morgan Silver Spiced Rum but do have the Original Spiced Rum (a copper color)… DO NOT RUSH to the store… THEY ARE THE SAME! The original just has food coloring added to it, your finished drink will just not end up being a pretty pink-ish color but it will surely taste the same!
