How to Make Turkey Oreos (Adorable No-Bake Thanksgiving Treats)

Get yourself some Oreos, candy corn, some chocolate chips, and a few other candy bits and bobs, and you’ve basically got the stuff to build these Thanksgiving desserts that’ll make everyone lose their minds at how absolutely stinkin’ adorable they are.

I mean, come on, just LOOK at them!

I love them because, again, cuteness, they’re no-bake, and insanely easy to make. Even if your kitchen prowess is microwave popcorn, you can make these.

Ingredient Notes

These are perfect for kids, broke college students, or anyone who needs a fun last-minute treat that looks like you tried.

• Oreos: Obviously. Double-stuffed ones work great – the more stuffing, the better the candy corn will hold.
• Chocolate chips: The glue for the candy.
• Candy: This is where you can let your creative flag fly. I like the candy eyes for personality, and the candy corn is pretty much a MUST — About 5 per cookie (buy extra; a few will “accidentally” get eaten).
  The nose and the waddle (haha, yes, that’s a word. It’s the weird red dangly thing on turkeys use orange Reeses pieces (M&M’s work too), and red candy icing for the waddle (you could also use red tictacs). Use all the candy listed here, or skip what you don’t want to use. Sub in different colors if you want – the world’s your oyster, my friend.

👀 How to Make Them At A Glance

1. Set up a tray with parchment. Melt a small bowl of chocolate until smooth.
2. Twist the cookies open so you’ve got a cream side to work with.
3. Swipe a little chocolate on the center of the cream.
4. Press in candy corn to make the tail. Five pieces look full, but use what you have.
5. Cap the cookie and press gently so it holds.
6. Add tiny dabs of chocolate on the front for eyes and a beak. Stick on the candy pieces.
7. Pipe a little red wattle.
8. Chill the tray for a few minutes so everything sets. Then plate or pack.

See? Simple dimple!

Got a little party going on or coming up to attend? These make adorable party favors or a fun plate on the dessert table. Put a few in a small box with tissue paper as a gift, or lay them out on a platter for kids to gobble at a classroom party.

If you want to be more playful, you can even pair them with other fun, no-bake treats for a full spread, like No-Bake Bird’s Nest Cookies or Elf Cookie Bites.

These Turkey Oreos are ridiculous in the best way. They’re so stinkin’ cute you’ll feel like Martha herself while you’re lining them up, except you don’t have to display them on the “very best tray”.

They’re little sugar bombs of happiness with candy corn feathers and chocolate glue holding everything together like sweet, sweet magic.

Grab a glass of milk (trust me, you’ll need it), take a bite, and try not to laugh at how proud you feel over a cookie that looks like it’s side-eyeing you.

Thanks for stopping by today – I’m really glad you’re here.
