- Spoon or pipe the filling back into the egg white halves, and sprinkle with paprika.
- Halve 6 black olives and place one half on top of each egg as the spider's body, leaving room for eyes.
- Cut remaining olives into halves, then slice each half into 4 thin strips to create spider legs.
- Attach 4 olive legs to each side of the olive body on each egg, and add 2 candy eyes on top.

For extra flavor, consider adding a bit of garlic powder to the yolk mixture.
These deviled eggs can be prepared a day in advance and kept refrigerated for convenience.
