    3. Bake 13 to 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Meanwhile, cut string cheese into 24 (2-inch) matchstick-sized pieces. Place 3 pieces on top of each muffin cup to make web shape. Bake about 2 minutes longer or until cheese is just melted.

    4. Immediately transfer cups to serving plate. Cut olives in half widthwise. Place one half cut-side down on top of each cup for spider body; cut remaining olive halves into thin slices, and place on top of cups for legs. Serve warm.

Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    If you can’t find mini pepperoni slices, purchase larger ones, and cut them into fourths to fit in the muffin cups.
  • Tip 2
    Don’t like Italian sausage? Swap it for 1/4 cup chopped red onion, sliced olives or more pepperoni.
