Oreo Turkeys Recipe – adorable no-bake Thanksgiving treats! Mix together cream cheese and crushed Oreos, dip in melted chocolate and decorate with candy corn, mini M&Ms, and candy eyes. Great treat for the kids to help make. SO fun! Perfect for your Thanksgiving dinner!
Mix cream cheese and cookie crumbs until blended. Press a heaping tablespoon of mixture into each opening of a mini muffin pan. Refrigerate an hour, or until firm.
Carefully remove cookie balls from muffin pan. (I ran a butter knife around the edge and they popped right out.)
Dip balls in melted chocolate. Immediately place 4 candy corn pieces point down sticking up from the cookie ball to make the turkeys feathers. Place two eyes on the face of the turkey. Place mini M&M on its side in between the eyes to make the beak. Repeat with remaining cookie balls.
Refrigerate 1 hour or until firm.
Notes:
Can substitute chocolate candy coating for melted chocolate chips.
Use regular, not Double Stuf Oreos. Double stuff has too much cream filling for this recipe.
For best results, use regular cream cheese not low-fat.
If you don’t have a food processor, finely crush the Oreos in a large resealable bag using a rolling pin or meat mallet.
I like to use a fork or chocolate dipping tool to dip in chocolate.
