Turkey Tea Party Treat

Gran hosted today's Turkey Tea Party, and before the party started, we each made our own Turkey Treats.

You will need one round cookie, one long cookie like Nutter Butter or Vienna Finger, mini M&Ms, candy corn, peanut butter cups, vanilla frosting, and cut pieces of taffy.

Lay out your round cookie as a base, and use the frosting as glue to stand up the other cookie with the peanut butter cup beside it (peanut butter cup is the back side of the turkey). Use the candy corn to make feathers. We inserted the candy corn between the cookie pieces. You may or may not need to add a little extra frosting to hold them in place.

Use mini M&Ms to make eyes and feet for your gobbler, and cut a piece of red taffy to make his waddle, using the frosting to hold them in place. The kids loved being able to craft their own treat for the party.

I just had to show you the cornucopia for our tea party. Gran used a sugar cone to make the cornucopia spilling out candy oranges, jelly beans, fruit gummies or just use whatever you can find.

Our table setting. The oranges at the centerpiece are hallowed out and filled with orange yogurt. Gran used a piece of cinnamon stick to make them look like pumpkins. For our sandwiches, we cut round pieces of bread to make small peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. We used mini M&Ms for the eyes and more taffy for the waddle, attached with a bit of peanut butter. We used red, yellow, and green apple slices and laid them on the plate above the sandwich to make our turkey tail feathers.

Yummy! Happy Thanksgiving!
