Instructions
Open the box of Nutter Butters and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the chocolate chips at 15-second intervals, stirring between, until completely melted.
Use the chocolate to “glue” the turkey features into place on the peanut butter cookie
Place one large line of chocolate at the top to affix the candy corn, forming turkey feathers. Then a dab of chocolate towards the bottom for the yellow M&M nose, and two small dabs just above the nose for the mini candy eyes.
Let set on the baking sheet for 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden before serving. You can place them in the refrigerator to speed up the process or if the house is warm.
