OREO COOKIE TURKEYS
Build an Oreo turkey with Oreos, candy and frosting. This would be a fun activity for (school-age) kids at a Thanksgiving gathering to put these together. They can display them at their dinner place and eat them for dessert....if they can wait that long. The recipe I am listing will be to make one dozen turkeys.

Steps:
- Place one Oreo cookie as the base. Put one teaspoon of chocolate frosting on top.
- Place one small peanut butter cup on it's side so that the top and bottom are perpendicular to the base -- and stuck in the frosting. Place a teaspoon of chocolate frosting on the top(widest part) of the p-butter cup.
- For the second cookie. Stick some candy corn into the Oreo 'stuff' along one edge for the feathers -- pointy side down. They should fan out around the edge. If you have trouble doing this, you can help them stick with some white frosting.
- Place this second Oreo cookie (the tail) on it's edge and sticking to a dab of brown frosting on the back of the peanut butter cup.
- Place a dab of chocolate frosting on top of the peanut butter up (for the head). Place a malted milk ball on top for the head.
- Take a small amount of the white frosting in a separate dish. Mix in red food coloring.
- Use a toothpick with the white and red colors to place eyes, and wattle. You can pinch off the small pointy top of a candy corn and dip it in brown frosting for the beak.
- Your turkey is complete!

Steps:
- Separate each cookie, leaving all the creme filling on one half of each. Set filling-topped halves aside.
- Use small amount of melted chocolate to attach 5 candy corn pieces, pointed-sides down, to each plain cookie half for the turkey's tail. Refrigerate 5 minutes or until chocolate is firm.
- Attach malted milk ball to center of each filling-topped cookie half with melted chocolate for the turkey's body. Use additional melted chocolate to attach cinnamon candies to bodies for the heads.
- Attach turkey tails to bodies with remaining melted chocolate. Refrigerate until firm.
Tips:
- Choose the right Oreos: Double-stuffed Oreos are the best option for this recipe, as they provide a sturdy base for the turkey's body.
- Be careful when melting the chocolate: Use a double boiler or microwave the chocolate in short intervals, stirring constantly, to prevent it from burning.
- Let the chocolate cool slightly before dipping the Oreos: This will help the chocolate to set more quickly and prevent it from running off the Oreos.
- Be creative with the decorations: Use sprinkles, candy eyes, or other edible decorations to create a variety of fun and festive turkeys.
- Serve the Oreo turkeys immediately: The chocolate will start to soften after a while, so it's best to enjoy them fresh.
Conclusion:
Oreo turkeys are a fun and easy Thanksgiving snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are a great way to use up leftover Oreos and they are sure to be a hit at your next holiday party. So get creative and have fun making these delicious and festive treats!
