Thanksgiving Turkey Gobbler Treats

What you'll need:

• One sandwich cookie. Oreos can be used, or any other brand
  


• Two tablespoons of frosting. White frosting or chocolate frosting are best
  


• Five pieces of candy corn
  


• One malted milk ball or a Reese's peanut butter cup cut in half
  


• One cinnamon candy or red gummy worm
  


• Napkins
  


• A craft stick or knife for spreading the frosting

1. First, open the cookie, and lay both sides on a napkin. Using the craft stick or knife, spread a little frosting on both cookies, directly over the frosting that is already on the cookie.


2. Make the frosting just thick enough to hold the candies to the cookies.


3. Make a small mound of frosting on one cookie, near the top of the circle. Stand the other cookie up vertically, on edge, in the mound of frosting. This becomes the back of the turkey.


4. Place the malted milk ball or Reese's in the frosting, pressing it against the cookie that is standing up. This becomes the body.


5. Place five pieces of candy corn, point side down, on the cookie that is standing up. Push the candy corn pieces into the frosting to make them secure. This becomes the tail feathers.


6. Place the cinnamon candy or the gummy worm next to the body of the Thanksgiving Gobbler. Secure the candy in the frosting. This becomes the wattle.

Happy Thanksgiving!
