Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by placing the donuts on a large, flat surface, like a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to catch any drips.
  2. Using a spatula, generously spread chocolate icing on top of each donut, ensuring the entire surface is covered.
Assembly

  2. Stick the licorice pieces into the sides of the iced donuts to form spider legs.
  3. Place candy eyes on the front of each donut to complete the spider design.
  4. If desired, sprinkle some colorful decorations on top for an extra festive touch.

Notes

Use white chocolate icing or flavored icing as substitutions for a unique twist. Assemble right before serving to keep toppings fresh.
