Turkey Cookies - The Last Ones...

The 2nd Wednesday before Thanksgiving (we don't have Wednesday night church the day before Thanksgiving) my class makes Turkey Cookies. This year I just had one little girl in my class, Bethany, and we made 24 cookies.

Through the years the children have had a lot of fun making them, and of course they love eating them. We made enough for everyone at church to have one. One of the most important things in making these cookies with children is: 1. Wash your hands 2. Don't lick your fingers 3. Don't lick your plastic knife 4. Keep the plate clean. LOL
For 24 Turkey Cookies
2 packages of Snackwell Fat Free chocolate cookies
2 packages of Fudge Stripe cookies
1 container of chocolate frosting
Reese's Peanut Butter chips or Candy Corn
1. Dab some frosting on the back of one Fudge Stripe cookie and place in the center of the plate (the frosting works like glue).
2. Dab some frosting on the back of one Snackwell cookie and stick a Fudge Stripe cookie on the back, with the stripes going up and down (this is the turkey's feathers).
3. Dab some frosting on the bottom of the two cookies and place on the cookie you have 'glued' to the plate. Make sure the stripes of the cookie on the plate is running up and down from the 'body' of the turkey. (these are the turkey's feet).
4. Take the peanut butter chip or candy corn and dab a little frosting on the back and place on the front of the Sanckwell cookie (this is the turkey's head).
This will be the last Turkey Cookies I'll be making with this class. After 15 years of teaching someone else will bless and be blessed by these wonderful children.
