Ingredients to Make DIY Thanksgiving Turkey Macarons
Macarons (store-bought or homemade)
Chocolate wafers melted
Thick cake frosting
Chocolate kisses or snowball melty candies
Sprinkles of white pearls
Steps in Making DIY Thanksgiving Turkey Macarons
Step 1 — Fill the macarons with melting chocolate wafers.
Step 2 — Wrap the macaron cookie in enough wafers to reach halfway.
Step 3 — Using a dab of frosting, “glue” the Snowball Melty on the cookie to make it look like a turkey nose.
Step 4 — To make the eyes, use a dab of frosting to “glue” two white pearl sprinkles together. Set it aside for a few minutes to harden.
After the frosting has been set, display the turkeys upright with these pumpkin place cards or on the table for guests and children to enjoy!
