Yield: 1 Oreo turkey
Supplies:
1 Oreo cookie
6 candy corn
1 miniature peanut butter cup
1 Whopper
round sprinkles (for eyes)
icing
1 stick pretzel

This is a great way to use up some of that Halloween candy. :)
Steps:
Gently push 5 of the candy corn into the cream of the cookie, point side down.
Using a knife, cut one edge of the peanut butter cup off so that it can sit up against the cookie.
Place some icing into a sandwich bag and snip the end off. Pipe a small mound of icing on the cut edge of the peanut butter cup and press it onto the face of the cookie.

Pipe a small mound of icing into the seam where the peanut butter cup and cookie meet. Press the Whopper into the icing, creating a head.
With a knife, cut of the tip of a candy corn, to make a beak. Pipe some icing onto the end and adhere it to the front of the Whopper.
Pipe eyes onto the head and add a round sprinkle to the middle of each to make pupils.
