Turkey Cupcakes

Sweet T.O.M. Turkeys (Treat of the Month)

Ingredients per cupcake:

Cupcake
Chocolate frosting
3 oval shortbread cookies (we used Keebler Sandies Right Bites Shortbread)
6 to 10 candy corn pieces
White icing
Black decorators' gel
Red fruit leather (we used strawberry Fruit by the Foot)

Step 1
Frost the cupcake, then press in a cookie head and 2 cookie wings.
Step 2
Press in a row or two of candy corn tail feathers.
Step 3
To make an eye, add a small dot of white icing to the head, then add a dot of black decorators' gel for a pupil.
Step 4
For a beak, cut the white tip from a piece of candy corn and press it in place.
Step 5
To make the wattle, cut a 1-inch square of fruit leather. Roll it into a tube and stick it in place over the beak.
