A Flock of Turkeys

A FLOCK OF TURKEYS

48 sugar cookies (3 in.)
1 pkg. (12 oz.) chocolate and marshmallow cookies
1 can (16 oz.) chocolate frosting
1 cup vanilla frosting
Yellow and red paste food coloring

Using a serrated knife, cut 1/2 inch from one side of 24 sugar cookies. Using a sharp knife, cut marshmallow cookies in half vertically. Spread chocolate frosting over the bottom of each marshmallow cookie half; align cut edges of a marshmallow cookie and a sugar cookie, and press together to form each turkey body and feathers. Spread chocolate frosting over the cut edges of each turkey; position and attach near the back edge of a whole sugar cookie. Cut a small hole in the corner of a pastry or plastic bag. Insert a #12 round pastry tip; fill bag with 3/4 cup chocolate frosting. Pipe a neck and head on each turkey. Tint 1/2 cup vanilla frosting, add eyes, beaks and legs. With #3 round tip and red frosting, pipe snood and tail feathers. Store in the refrigerator. Makes 2 dozen.
