Ingredients
- 12 Nutter Butter cookies
- 6 round peanut butter sandwich cookies
- 72 pieces of candy corn
- 1/3 cup white chocolate chips or candy melts
- 24 edible candy eyes
- 6 orange or yellow M&Ms cut in half
- 6 mini red M&Ms cut in half
Instructions
- Start by separating the round peanut butter cookies into halves. Arrange the cookie halves on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth.
- To create the tail, dip the white ends of 6 candy corn pieces into the melted chocolate, then press them onto one half of a round cookie, fanning them out to form the tail. Repeat with each base and set aside to let the chocolate harden.
- Place a dollop of melted white chocolate on the top back side of a Nutter Butter cookie, then press it onto the center of the round cookie with the candy corn tail. Hold it for a few seconds to secure, then return it to the baking sheet to set.
- Using a small dab of melted chocolate, attach two candy eyes near the top of the Nutter Butter cookie. Below the eyes, place an orange or yellow M&M, cut side down, for the beak, and a mini red M&M, cut side down, beside it for the wattle.
- Allow the turkeys to sit at room temperature for about 15–20 minutes, until the chocolate fully hardens.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days. Do not refrigerate.
