Feed6 Cute Dessert Turkeys for Your Thanksgiving Feast
I love a traditional Thanksgiving pie as much as the next person, but I also love making cute turkey desserts with my kids to add a little whimsy to the holiday meal. Here are six fun turkey treats everyone is sure to gobble!
1. Turkey Treats

4. Handprint Turkey Cookies
Taste of Home has the recipe for these amazing handprint turkey cookies. Another great one to do with kids.
5. Turkey cupcakes
Cupcakes Take The Cake has collected so many turkey cupcake ideas, it's hard to pick a favorite.The decoration options are endless, so pick one that uses ingredients your family likes, from sliced almonds for tail feathers to red licorice for tiny waddles. There's even a Nutter Butter turkey.
6. Turkey cakes
I just love these kitschy creations, though I know not everyone shares my enthusiasm.
What's your favorite Thanksgiving dessert? Do you think the turkey cake is more "ew!" than cool?
