Thanksgiving Treats and Snacks Part Three

Welcome back for part three of our series, Thanksgiving Treats and Snacks!

So far we've enjoyed making Thanksgiving Turkey Cookies and Thanksgiving Pretzel Rods. Two simple, fun and yummy snacks to make with your kiddos. Today we have our last delicious treat, Thanksgiving Turkey Cookie Pops.

These Turkey Cookies Pops might have been a more challenging than we thought. Though, we could have taken the time to slow down a bit and plan ahead a little better. We learned a few things while having fun making our cookies.
Lesson one: Push the pop stick into the cookie cream filling and cover the cookie and around the stick with melting chocolate. Then let the cookie and chocolate cool and harden on wax or paraffin paper.

Lesson two: With a few dabs of melting chocolate, place the candy corn around edge of the cookie and let cool. The more corn placed closer together looks better. Breya's turkey look way better than Jay's.

Lesson three: We used two methods for attaching the eyes and beak. Breya used chocolate to add the eyes and the beak. Jay used red icing to adhere the eyes and beak.  Both methods work, just be sure to the melting chocolate is cool. If you notice in the picture, Jay's cookie (the one on the left) looks a little flat. That is because the chocolate wasn't cool enough.

The best thing about making these treats is the experimenting and learning as you go. We will definitely make this treat again.
