SPOOKY SPIDER CHEESEBALL

Combine cream cheese and Missouri Mud Cheesecake Dip & Dessert Mix. Wrap 1/3 of the mixture in one sheet of plastic wrap and the rest in another sheet, shape into two cheeseballs. Refrigerate until firm. Roll each cheeseball in Oreo baking crumbs and place on a platter, as shown in photo. Attach 8 licorice ropes to the larger cheeseball (the body) for the spider’s legs. For a more life-like spider you can add details like candy eyes, a red fruit leather marking to the back, and fangs made out of more licorice. Note: to achieve a larger spider like the one pictured, double the recipe.
