It appears as though fall has flown by and suddenly Thanksgiving and Christmas are just around the corner. I use Thanksgiving break not only to relax and surround myself with family and friends, but also as a time to work on myself and do things that I love. For the past years, this has included baking and making crafts. Baking especially gives me a sense of contentment and relaxation. At the same time, I still have something at the end to show for it. This Thanksgiving break I will be baking a lot. I thought I might share some sweet Thanksgiving treats that you can bake too!
- Turkey Oreo Balls– These chocolate Oreo Turkeys are the perfect quick and easy sweet treat. This recipe is made with the beloved Oreo cookies. These treats are sure to be a crowd pleaser for the kids, but also for the adults! This is not only a treat- it’s almost like a sweet craft where you have to perfectly assemble a chocolate cookie dessert into a Turkey.
- Charlie Brown Thanksgiving Bark– If you are looking for something still chocolatey and delicious, but less time consuming, this dessert will be just right for you. This chocolate bark has various sweet and savory toppings. Toppings are customizable based on your favorite treats and sweets. It’s the perfect table snack that everyone can munch on and enjoy throughout the day.
- Chocolate Strawberry Turkey Treat– This is the perfect treat that you could do to occupy not only yourself, but also any younger siblings or little hands that want to help out. This treat consists of a strawberry dipped in chocolate that will turn out to be the shape of a turkey. This recipe is slightly healthier for you and it’s also quick and easy with few ingredients!
- S’mores Pie– This s’mores pie is the perfect show stopping dessert. Many are familiar with apple pies and even butterscotch pies. But a s’more’s pie is not only delicious, but it will be unlike anything else on the Thanksgiving dessert table. This is a step up and requires some past experience. But if you are willing to take your baking game to the next level, this is a perfect dessert for you!
- Pumpkin Pie Sugar Cookies– Last but not least, these sugar cookies are in the shape of a pumpkin pie. Although not a showstopper, these sugar cookies are classic and timeless. They are bound to please the youngest of the family members to the oldest. It would also make a great family activity to decorate them together.
