Pretzel Tailed Turkey Treats


Pretzel Tailed Turkey Treats

3 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 package (10 ounces about 40) marshmallows
-OR-
4 cups miniature marshmallows
6 cups rice krispies
Creamy peanut butter
Cocoa krispies cereal
Pretzel twists
Pretzel sticks
Canned frosting or decorating gel
Assorted candies

In large saucepan melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.

Add 6 cups cocoa krispies cereal. Stir until well coated. Cool slightly. Cut warm cereal mixture into two different sized circles using two sizes of circle cookie cutters for the turkey bodies (depending on size of cutters). Cool.

Spread peanut butter on bottom of the smaller circular pieces; attach this to a larger circular piece to form the turkey body. Insert pretzel twists into body for tail feathers. Insert pretzel sticks for legs. Use frosting to attach candies for eyes and beak. Best if served the same day.
