Thanksgiving Treats

I think it would even be fun to have the kids help decorate Thanksgiving treats after the main meal. 

You can easily bake the brownies and have everything laid out for the kids (and adults) to decorate their own turkey brownie!

A few years ago, I baked homemade donuts for everyone to decorate and enjoy.

One year my husband put together gingerbread houses using graham crackers. It turned out to be so much fun as we all gathered together to decorate them, unleashing our creativity and bringing out the holiday spirit.

How to Decorate the Turkey Brownies

Step 2: Once the brownies have cooled, cut them into 3 inch circles. Add a little icing to the back of a peanut butter cup to add the turkey body. Add the candy eyes and a red chocolate candy for the beak/gobbler. Set the chocolate candy on its side so it looks more like a beak. Add 4-5 candy corn to make the turkey feathers.

Storing and Thawing Tips

Pantry: To store any leftover brownies, you can wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or foil, place them in an airtight container, or seal them with press and seal to keep them fresh at room temperature for up to 4-5 days.

Refrigerator: You can store them in the refrigerator for up to a week as long as they are covered tightly with plastic wrap or foil.

Freezer: Allow the brownies to cool completely before freezing. Cut the brownies into the circle shapes needed to make the turkey brownies. Place them in an airtight container or wrap them tightly in plastic wrap. Brownies can be frozen for up to 3 months.
