Cuddle amorously, in a way (5)

I believe the answer is:

spoon

(Other definitions for spoon that I've seen before include "feeder" , "One for taking soup" , "Indulge in sentimental courtship - eating utensil" , "Ancient club" , "'He that sups with the devil should have a long . . . . .'" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
