Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla, until smooth.

- Repeat for the other two bowls with the orange and then the purple gel coloring.
- Prepare a cooling rack with a piece of parchment paper (or foil or something similar) underneath.
- Dip the tops of the donuts into the colorful icing, and let the excess drip off for a few seconds.
- Place them face up on the cooling rack.
- Repeat for all of the donuts, alternating what color icing you dip into.
- Allow the donuts to set so the icing can harden.
- Then, melt the melting wafers in a microwave safe bowl, on 30 second increments, stirring well in between.
- Once melted, allow the candy just a couple of minutes to cool.
- Add the candy to a frosting piping bag, and snip off just the very tip.
- Use the candy to make your spider webs, starting with the lines across and then connecting them with little waves to
make your spider webs. - Serve and enjoy!
