Ingredients
  

  • 12 Oreo cookies Double Stuf works best for turkeys
  • 12 mini peanut butter cups
  • 24 candy corn For turkey feathers and hat buckle
  • 12 mini chocolate chips For eyes
  • 1 tube white decorating icing For eyes and hat band
  • 12 chocolate-covered graham crackers For pilgrim hats
  • 12 small round chocolate candies For hat buckle

Equipment

  • Small knife
  • Piping bag or small ziplock bag for icing

Method
 

  1. For Oreo Turkeys: Gently twist apart the Oreo cookies, keeping the cream filling on one side. Place the side with the cream filling face down on a flat surface.
  2. Unwrap the mini peanut butter cups and place one on the cream side of each Oreo, with the wider end facing down. This will be the turkey's body.
  3. Insert 5-6 pieces of candy corn into the Oreo cream, around the peanut butter cup, to create the turkey's feathers. Press gently to secure.
  4. Using the white decorating icing, add two small dots for the eyes on the peanut butter cup. Place a mini chocolate chip on each dot to complete the eyes.
  5. For Cookie Pilgrim Hats: Place a chocolate-covered graham cracker flat side down. Use the white decorating icing to pipe a band around the bottom of the graham cracker.
  6. Place a small round chocolate candy in the center of the band to create the buckle of the pilgrim hat.

Notes

Chef's Tips:
• For a nut-free version, use mini chocolate cups instead of peanut butter cups
• Avoid over-pressing the candy corn to prevent the Oreo from cracking
• Serve on a festive platter to enhance the Thanksgiving theme
Food Safety:
• Ensure all candies are fresh and within their expiration date
• Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness
