Rice Crispy Turkeys


To make these cute edible turkeys, mix up a batch of chocolate Rice Krispy treats. Grease your hands with vegetable spray and form the the Krispies into balls. Using the end of a spoon, make holes for the candy to be placed in the body. For the snood (the red thing on the turkey's beak) try a red Mike & Ike cut in half or even cut a gum drop in half. Candy corn for the beak is a fun choice-perfect size and color.Then add the feathers. Tons of possibilities for this! Try toothpicks, marshmallows, cereal, gumdrops, etc. and then use mini M&M's for the eyes. These sweet turkeys could even be saved for a fun table decoration on Thanksgiving day to be eaten as part of dessert-so fun!
