EASY THANKSGIVING TURKEY COOKIES

These cookies are cute and easy! Kids love them! Fun to make! I used the refrigerated cookie dough - but you could even buy pre-made sugar cookies and decorate them... We took these to my kids classes for their pre-Thanksgiving party and they were a huge hit! It's probably easiest to just look at the picture to make these rather than follow my directions - but good luck! Enjoy!

Yield 24 cookies, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (18 ounce) roll refrigerated sugar cookie dough
1 (8 ounce) bag candy corn
1 (8 ounce) bag miniature M&M's chocolate candies
2 ounces decorating gel
1 (6 1/2 ounce) can betty crocker decorating icing

  • Next squirt two dots in the middle for the eyes. Top with 2 mini M&Ms of the same color.
