Turkey Pretzels
I plan to make these again for Thanksgiving! These would be so fun to make as a family for a great night in activity. Now that the weather is getting colder we are trying to do more things at home.
Plus how cute are these to enjoy together. I mean seriously how cute are these Pretzel Turkeys! So much fun!
They would also be great packaged up as small gifts for family members at Thanksgiving. I can imagine a few grandparents swooning over the cuteness of them.

Turkey Pretzels Rods Directions
- Break Pretzel Rods in half.
- Melt chocolate in the microwave, 30 seconds and stir, 15-second increments stirring after each until melted and smooth, let sit at least 5 minutes to set up just a little to make it easier to work with.
- On a piece of wax paper layout, 3 candy corns in a fan shape with the pointy side in.
- Using a spoon cover a Pretzel Rod with Chocolate. Leave a little extra on the top back part to stick to the candy corn.
- Lay the Chocolate covered pretzel over the Candy Corn so they stick out the tops.

- Place a half piece of Reese’s pieces under the Pearls for the beak.
