  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Combine flour, baking soda, salt, and baking powder in a large bowl and stir with a fork to mix ingredients well.

Add in flour mixture, 1 cup at a time, and mix in with a spatula until well incorporated. Fold in 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips until well combined.
  • Drop cookies onto ungreased baking sheets. Pour 1/2 cup chocolate chips into a bowl. Push about 3 to 4 chocolate chips onto each cookie, tip-side down, to make the spider bodies.
