Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup semi sweet chocolate
  • 12 full-sized Reese's peanut butter cups
  • 12 miniature Reese's peanut butter cups
  • 12 yellow or orange M&Ms or Reese's Pieces
  • 12 mini red M&Ms
  • 12 small candy eyeballs
  • 60 pieces candy corn

Instructions

  • Microwave the chocolate in 20-second increments until smooth and melted. Stir in between increments to let the heat of the chocolate distribute evenly.
    Melt Chocolate for Turkeys
  • Set aside the full-size Reese's cups on a tray or baking sheet.
  • To make the turkey beak on the mini Reese's cups, dip the skinny side of a yellow or orange M&M into the chocolate and add it to the middle of the Reese's miniature cups so it stands upright.
    Add M&M Beak
  • To make the wattle, dip the narrow side of a mini red M&M into the chocolate and place it next to the beak. Add some melted chocolate on the back of the candy eyeballs with a toothpick and place two eyeballs above the beak on the turkey head.
    Add the candy eyes
  • Dip the flat bottom of each turkey head in chocolate and then place it on the bottom part of the full-size Reese's peanut butter cup.
    Attach small cup to regular cup
  • To make the feathers, lightly dip the back side of a candy corn into the melted chocolate. Then attach five pieces to each of the full-sized Reese's cups above the head.
  • Let the chocolate harden and set for 20 to 30 minutes. Or place the tray in the refrigerator for 10 to 15 minutes if your kitchen temperature is warm.
