Rolo Turkey Pretzels

Total Time 1

Servings turkey pretzels

Pre-heat the oven to 275°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lay another piece of parchment paper on the counter for completed turkeys to rest on.
Prep ingredients. Cut the small white tips off the candy corns. Unwrap the Rolo candies. Open the candy eyes package. Sort out the orange and yellow mini M&Ms.
Arrange 6 pretzels on parchment-lined cookie sheet. Place the point side "up" and the two bumps "down". Place one Rolo candy on each pretzel.
Bake for 1 minute, 45 seconds in pre-heated oven. (The candy should still be holding its shape, but the chocolate should have a slight glossy look under the light.) Remove from oven.
Gently press/tap across the top of the Rolo candy with a toothpick to flatten very slightly.
Gently press three candy corns in the top edge of the slightly melted Rolo candy to make feathers. You might have to hold them a minute for them to set a bit.
Add two candy eyes and one mini M&M for the beak.
Repeat with the remaining 5 pretzels & Rolo candies on the baking sheet.
Carefully transfer to parchment paper on counter to allow to set.
Repeat steps #2- #8 with the remaining ingredients.
Optional: after all the turkeys are assembled and on counter, add small amount of red icing next to beak for wattle.
Carefully transfer all the turkeys to a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Place in refrigerator for 10 minutes to allow them to finish setting.
Store at room temperature in an airtight container or Ziploc bag.
