They are obviously very talented, so I’ll hand it over and let them show you around!

Turkey Cookies

By 8 Comments

This has been a family Thanksgiving tradition of mine for a long time. These turkey cookies are really fun to make and the little ones love to help! They only take a few minutes to make, but have a BIG wow factor! Let’s get going with the Thanksgiving Turkey Cookie Tutorial!

Ingredients needed for Turkey Cookies:
Ginger snaps
Chocolate Frosting
Candy Corns (get them soon, they are hard to find closer to Thanksgiving!)
Hershey Kisses (I used the almond ones just because I like them better)
Chocolate Chips
Red Hots

Tools:
Cutting board
Knives (one to trim cookies, one to spread frosting)

I like to put all the ingredients in bowls for easy access.

1. First, trim a ginger snap with a knife to make the tail. Make sure the cut is not angled or your tail will fall over.

2. Spread frosting on cookie piece and add five candy corns for feathers.

3. Add some frosting to the flat edge of the cookie and stand it up on the edge of another ginger snap. (Tail)

4. Frost the bottom of a kiss and put it on the cookie in front of the tail. (Body) This will help hold up the tail while the frosting sets.

5. Dip the edge of a chocolate chip in frosting and place it near the top of the Hershey’s Kiss. (Head) Then, dip a red hot in frosting and place it below the chocolate chip on the kiss. (Gobble)

There you have it! One fantastic little turkey cookie!
Now, gobble til you wobble!

We love to use these as a Thanksgiving activity for the kids
while all the food is cooking.

Turkey cookies are a fun little treat for neighbors or would be really cute set at
each place on the Thanksgiving table!

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cupcakes

By 9 Comments

Here’s a fun little Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cupcake recipe that is pretty darn healthy (I think it’s like 1 weight watchers point, no I am not on Weight Watchers, but my former co-workers who were loved these) and ridiculously easy! Oh, and did I mention yummy! My husbands co-workers (aka computer geeks) loved these!

Ingredients:
1 box spice cake
1 small can Pumpkin
1/2 bag of chocolate chips

Mix it up, put in cups and bake for 22 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. This will make about 20ish pumpkin cupcakes depending on how big you make them.
Easy peasy. Seriously, if you mess this one up I don’t know what to tell you!

I put them in paper cups, but also borrowed this awesome pumpkin shaped pan from my sis. I think she may have purchased it at Ikea?

I added a little green frosting swirl to the pumpkin shaped ones. I did not have an fall themed plated so I used two of the generic ones to make a little container and drew a pumpkin on top with markers.

Hmmm. I gave them all away. Maybe I need to make more. 🙂
