These turkey legs made of pears are such a fun and tasty snack for Thanksgiving.
Ingredients
- pears

- candy eyes
- curved sprinkles
- parchment paper
Instructions
1. Trim the bottom stalk off the pear.
2. Make a hole with a metal straw where the stalk used to be.
3. Melt the white chocolate.
4. Once the chocolate has melted, insert the pretzel stick and ensure it’s covered in chocolate.
5. Remove the stick using a fork and shake off the excess chocolate.
6. Place the stick on parchment paper.
7. Dip the round sprinkles (you can also use hazelnuts) into the chocolate, and place them on the bottom of the pretzel stick, one on each side.
8. Allow to harden.
9. Once set, insert the stick into the bottom of the pear.
10. Top with candy eyes and the curved sprinkle for the mouth. (you can use edible glue or some of the melted white chocolate to make it all stick).
