some sort of edible turkey…
but what to make???
I googled turkey treats and found tons
of the same ones made out of oreos.
Those are cute and all, but call me crazy…
I wanted to come up with some thing slightly original.
Yes, I do know edible turkey treats are NOT an
original idea, but I hope you enjoy
my take on the brownie bite turkey.
(plus to make it even more original, I FORGOT to add his gobble…
I just realized it when I was adding the pics)
You knew brownie bites were coming, right????
10 bonus points to those that spotted that one right away:-)
I couldn’t help myself…
brownie bites were the perfect body for this “sweet” guy!
I need to caution you…
these are only for the SERIOUS chocolate lover!!!
They have chocolate all over them…
just warning you now:-)
And to fill these brownie bites, I used up some of the
reeses peanut butter cups that were lurking in my cupboard.
These would be a great thanksgiving day “craft”
to do with your kids.
They could easily dip the pretzel sticks and put the sprinkles on.
Brownies and peanut butter cups dipped in chocolate and decorated with chocolate covered pretzels for a fun turkey treat.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Bake the brownies according to the package. Cool.
- Melt the chocolate melts and dip the pretzels sticks. Sprinkle with fall sprinkles. Dip the pretzel twist and let set.
- Cut the tip off an Indian candy corn and add a small dab of melted chocolate to it. Attach to the front of a peanut butter cup. Melt the white chocolate. Use a toothpick to drop some white chocolate on for the eyes. When they have set, dab a little brown in the center for the eyeballs.
- Once your brownies are cool, cut into 15 squares and place a peanut butter cup in the center. Roll up. Place in the freezer for 30 minutes. Dip in chocolate and let set.
- Attach your peanut butter cup head to the top of the bite with some chocolate. Dip the bottom ends of the sprinkled pretzels in choc and attach to the back of the bite. Hold for a minute or it will fall off. Attach the pretzel twists to the sides the same way.
- Dip the tip of the Reeses pieces in chocolate and attach to the front for feet.
Happy Turkey Making!

You are too much! These are the cutest thing ever and my one gripe with Thanksgiving is that chocolate is not a big part of it and you know I can’t have that! So these are perfect for so many reasons!
These are so cute! And you really can’t go wrong with chocolate and peanut butter.
Very cute! And chocolatey too!
