Use your microwave to make these fun turkey cookies for your family at Thanksgiving.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 12 chocolate candy stars
  • 12 caramel candies, unwrapped
  • 12 scalloped chocolate-frosted shortbread cookies
  • 12 pieces of candy corn

PREPARATION:

To make each turkey, place chocolate star, point-side up, on a plate your counter. Place one caramel on microwave-safe waxed paper, microwave on high for 5-10 seconds or just until slightly softened. Place softened caramel on tip of chocolate star and press down. To make the tail, press chocolate cookie, striped side facing forward, against the soft caramel to stand upright. Press candy corn on top of caramel to look like a turkey's beak. Makes 12 cookies/decorations.
