Miscellaneous Wednesdays: Next year, turn your leftover treats into turkeys!

I "stumbled" across this flickr post today from user Kimi Coopet:

Oreo Turkey Cookies (Explored)   This is my 2009 Oreo Turkey! I changed it up a bit and decided to add a gobbler. lol Funny.

They are a hit for kids and adults. It's a nice alternative to pie! I get emails everyday asking how to make these cute little cookies. I put this together so have fun! What you need: 9 Candy Corn 2 Double Stuffed Oreo Cookies 1 Whopper 1 Reese's Peanut Butter Cup 1 Tube of black piping gel 1 tube of white icing 1 Yellow and red food coloring 1 Yellow and red food coloring 2 plastic Ziplock bag 1 sharp knife 1 pair of scissors 1 bowl Prep: Put your Peanut Butter Cups in the fridge to cool. If you have cold hard chocolate to work with it makes it a lot easier. Squeeze some of the white icing into a bowl. This will be your orange. Mix red and yellow food coloring with the icing to create your desired orange. Then put that into a plastic bag and set it aside for later. Do the same for a thing of red. Creating: First you will be creating the tail using 1 Oreo cookie and 6 Candy Corns. Gently, with one candy corn pull apart just one side of the Oreo. Don't don't break about the entire thing. Put a good amount of icing in between the two sides. This will help the Candy Corn stay. Place 6 Candy Corn (white side down) in between the cookie. See picture. Take your white icing and squeeze a generous amount onto the top back of an Oreo cookie. Take the other Oreo and put the bottom into the icing to have it stand up. If it doesn't stand, add more icing! Once you have it stand put it up against something so it doesn't fall until the icing is dry. I use a thick book. Remove your Peanut Butter Cup from the fridge. Take your knife and cut off the very bottem so you have a flat surface. Put icing on the bottom of it the bigger flat. Bump it up against the bottom and back of your Oreo cookies. See picture. Next take your Whopper and squeeze more icing on it on one side. Place the whopper on top of the Peanut Butter Cup to make your head. Find a piece of Candy Corn that has a nice big white end. Using your sharp knife cut the color off leaving you with the white end. Place some icing on it and stick it on your whopper as the beak to your Oreo Turkey. Hold for a moment. Put some frosting on the back of a Candy Corn and place it on the side of the Peanut Butter Cup with the small end pointing up. Do this on each side for the wings. Make sure to hold for a moment to get them to stick! Take your icing and place two white dots as eyes. Get your tube of black piping gel and place a black dot on each eye to make them come alive. Grab your bag of already created orange. Cut a very small hole in the corner of the bag. Now, pipe feet. Grab your bag of already created red. Cut a very small hole in the coner of the bag. Pipe a strip under the nose for a gobble. It's okay if it looks messy. Those things are silly looking anyways! Now you are done! It is that simple!!
