'Tis the season for turkey, family, darker days and cold weather. Here was a fast, simple thanksgiving creation that the my girls made together for a neighbor who needed some cheering up. I actually was on a limited schedule so I cheated and bought Fruity Pebble cereal snack bars, however these can also made at home with fruity pebbles following the same Rice Krispie Treat recipe.
Turkey Treats
Hershey Kiss
Mini M&M's
frosting (I just picked up a mini orange frosting gel tube)
Rice Krispie Treats
Fruity Pebble Cereal Bars (which come already drizzled with white frosting)
2 sizes heart shaped cookie cutters
Using the small heart cookie cutter, cut out three mini hearts (you might have to use multiple bars.) Using the larger cookie cutter, cut out heart from Rice Krispie Treats. Use three mini heart cut-outs to form a semi-circle. Take a larger heart, turn upside down and attach with a small amount of frosting to the smaller hearts to form the look of a feather tail. Attach an unwrapped Hershey Kiss to the main 'body' of the turkey to form a head. Make two small frosting dots for eyes on the kiss and attach one red mini M&M with frosting near the top of the kiss.
Rice Krispie Treat {Generic} Recipe
1/4 cup butter
1 package mini marshmallows
1 teaspoon vanilla (optional)
6 cups Rice Krispie Cereal
Over medium low heat, melt butter in a large sauce pan. Then, add marshmallows. Stir occasionally until marshmallows melt, then add vanilla and stir well. Add cereal and mix until mixture is evenly coated. Press into a buttered cookie sheet to cool.
