Steps:
- Place the chocolate chips in a medium stainless steel or glass bowl. Set the bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate has melted, about 4 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
- For each turkey, push 5 candy corn candies, tip-side down, into the cream filling of a chocolate sandwich cookie to make the feathers for the turkey. Lay the cookie on a work surface.
- Dip the flat, larger end of a peanut butter cup in the melted chocolate allowing any excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl. Place the peanut butter cup, chocolate-dipped end down, onto the sandwich cookie.
- Dip a malt ball into the melted chocolate allowing any excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl. Place the malt ball above the peanut butter cup to make the head of the turkey.
- Dip the flat end of the white candy corn tip in the chocolate. Place on the malt ball, to make the turkey beak. Refrigerate until the chocolate has set, about 10 minutes.
- Place the Red Frosting in a piping bag. Using scissors, cut a small opening in the end of the piping bag. Pipe a small piece of frosting under the malt ball to make the turkey's beard.
- Place a cookie (with top half removed) on a platter. Stand the turkey upright into the cream filling. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- In a medium bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat the butter until smooth, about 20 seconds. Add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract and milk. Beat on low speed until combined. Increase the speed to high and beat until the mixture is smooth. Color the frosting by mixing in 1 drop of red food coloring at a time until the desired color is reached.
OREO COOKIE TURKEYS
Build an Oreo turkey with Oreos, candy and frosting. This would be a fun activity for (school-age) kids at a Thanksgiving gathering to put these together. They can display them at their dinner place and eat them for dessert....if they can wait that long. The recipe I am listing will be to make one dozen turkeys.

Steps:
- Place one Oreo cookie as the base. Put one teaspoon of chocolate frosting on top.
- Place one small peanut butter cup on it's side so that the top and bottom are perpendicular to the base -- and stuck in the frosting. Place a teaspoon of chocolate frosting on the top(widest part) of the p-butter cup.
- For the second cookie. Stick some candy corn into the Oreo 'stuff' along one edge for the feathers -- pointy side down. They should fan out around the edge. If you have trouble doing this, you can help them stick with some white frosting.
- Place this second Oreo cookie (the tail) on it's edge and sticking to a dab of brown frosting on the back of the peanut butter cup.
- Place a dab of chocolate frosting on top of the peanut butter up (for the head). Place a malted milk ball on top for the head.
- Take a small amount of the white frosting in a separate dish. Mix in red food coloring.
- Use a toothpick with the white and red colors to place eyes, and wattle. You can pinch off the small pointy top of a candy corn and dip it in brown frosting for the beak.
- Your turkey is complete!

Tips:
- Choose the right Oreos. Classic Oreos are the best choice for this recipe, as they have a sturdy cookie base and a creamy filling. You can also use other flavors of Oreos, such as Double Stuff or Golden Oreos, but be aware that the overall flavor of the turkeys may change.
- Be careful when dipping the Oreos in chocolate. The chocolate should be melted but not too hot, otherwise it will melt the Oreos and make them difficult to work with. Dip the Oreos quickly and evenly, and let any excess chocolate drip off before placing them on the parchment paper.
- Be patient when assembling the turkeys. It takes a little time to put together each turkey, so be patient and take your time. Make sure the chocolate is completely set before you start assembling the turkeys, otherwise they will fall apart.
- Get creative with your decorations. You can use a variety of edible decorations to decorate your turkeys, such as candy eyes, sprinkles, and chocolate chips. You can also use edible markers to draw faces on the turkeys.
Conclusion:
Oreo turkeys are a fun and easy Thanksgiving snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are a great way to use up leftover Oreos, and they are also a festive addition to any Thanksgiving table. With a little creativity, you can make Oreo turkeys that are both delicious and adorable.
