How to Make Oreo Turkeys
Ingredients you’ll need for this recipe
Step by Step Guide
1. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate wafers on a low or defrost setting in 30-second increments. Stir after each interval until the chocolate is smooth and set it aside to cool slightly.
2. Line a baking tray or board with parchment paper for easy transport. Carefully separate the Oreos, placing the halves on the parchment paper.
3. Add a small amount of melted chocolate towards the top of half the cookies. Work in small batches of 4-6 cookies to prevent the chocolate from setting too quickly.
4. Arrange 5 candy corn pieces on top of each cookie for the turkey’s feathers, gently pressing them into the chocolate.
5. Place the remaining Oreo halves on top of the candy corn feathers.
6. Use a skewer to dab a small amount of melted chocolate on the front of the cookie where the eyes will go.
7. Press the candy eyeballs into place.
8. Dip the skewer in chocolate again and add a small dab below the eyes. Place a halved Reese’s Pieces on top for the turkey’s beak.
9. Using the red cookie icing, pipe a small line next to the beak to create the turkey’s wattle or snood.
10. Transfer the Oreo Turkeys to the refrigerator to set for 5-10 minutes. Once set, they’re ready to enjoy!
There you have it! these delightful Oreo Turkeys can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for 2-3 weeks or refrigerated for up to 4 weeks. You can even freeze them for a future treat!
This is perfect for Thanksgiving or any holiday gathering. Enjoy the smiles and sweet moments that come with every bite!
