Here’s How You Can Make Chocolate Turkeys Out of Strawberries For The Cutest Thanksgiving Dessert
Forget pumpkin pie and ditch the apple strudels because this Thanksgiving we’re introducing chocolate covered strawberry turkeys that will surely win over mom and impress Grandma at the dinner table!
Considering the main course on Thanksgiving day typically includes indulging in our favorite comfort foods, this creative Thanksgiving dessert will make you want to skip the main meal and go straight to dessert!
Thanks to TikToker at @_ellagrace12, you can now turn your strawberries into chocolate turkeys like turning lemon into lemonade.
Starting with a handful of strawberries, grab a few from the fridge because the red fruit will act as the body of your turkeys.
Snag a few mini marshmallows and pretzel sticks from the pantry too.
Poke the pretzel sticks through the marshmallow just until you reach the middle; then, stick on the legs with melted chocolate on either side of the strawberry.
Coat the entire strawberry with turkey legs and all in a chocolate dip and carefully place on a skewer to dry.
Once the chocolate has hardened like a shell, your chocolate covered strawberry turkeys are ready to be served and presented on a white platter after everyone has stuffed their faces with meat and cornbread; Bon Appétit!
Can these be made ahead and frozen? Don’t know how they would do after they’re thawed
Pretzels did not stick to strawberry
@Barbara, pretzel goes thru marshmallow
Love these. What kind of chocolate did you use that hardens?
DJ-if you have to bring a dish, please make these!
use the marshmallows with the chocolate inside, they are delicious
Wish strawberries were in season during Thanksgiving:(
@Steph, I had the same thought…
@Steph, they should be. Try your local Walmart. Just got some today! 11/24/21
Did you dip the feet in white chocolate
@Willa, I wondered that myself.
@Martin Watagatapitusberry, maybe a marshmallow?

@Sandy Johnston, maybe dipped in some melted marshmallow. With some powered sugar on your finger to pat down any spiked marshmellow.
