Turkey Pretzels

Ingredients

• 12 pretzel rods
• 12 Fudge Stripe Cookies
• 8 ounces chocolate almond bark
• 1 bag candy corn candy
• orange Reeces Pieces candy
• 24 edible candy eyes
• 1/4 cup red candy melts

Instructions

1. 1

   Lay out a piece of parchment paper or wax paper.

2. 2

   Take 12 fudge stripe cookies and place them striped side down and at least 2 inches apart on the prepared surface.

3. 3

   Add 8 ounces of chocolate almond bark into a microwave-safe bowl. Heat for 1 minute, stir, and then continue heating in 15-second increments until melted. Place a piping bag into a tall glass. Pour the melted chocolate into the piping bag.

4. 4

   Dip a pretzel rod into the piping bag full of chocolate, and allow the excess to drip off. Place the dipped pretzel rod onto a fudge stripe cookie. Repeat with the remaining pretzels.

5. 5

   Take the piping bag filled with the remaining melted chocolate and cut a small hole in the tip. Use the chocolate as glue to place your candy corn in a half-moon pattern on the fudge stripe cookie to create the effect of the turkey’s feathers.

6. 6

   Carefully cut the orange Reese’s Pieces candy in half. Place the candy eyes and half of an orange Reese’s Pieces vertically for the nose using the chocolate as glue.

7. 7

   For the last step, melt ¼ cup of red candy melts according to the package. Place the melted candy into another piping bag. Cut a small hole for the tip and pipe the turkey’s wattle.

8. 8

   Let the turkey pretzels dry for at least 30 minutes. You can also place them in the fridge for quicker drying time.
