🦃 This quick and easy recipe creates an eye-catching edible centerpiece that combines chocolate, crunchy pretzels, and colorful fall sprinkles.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 12 pretzel turkey feathers

Ingredients

– 10 ounces (about 284 grams) chocolate chips or melting wafers for the smooth chocolate coating

– 12 large pretzel rods to form the tail feathers

– 1 jar fall-colored sprinkles for bright, festive decoration

– Small chocolate candies such as brown-coated candies, chocolate-covered coffee beans, raisins, nuts, brown sprinkles, or candy corn to fill the jar and add texture

Instructions

1-First, melt the 10 ounces of chocolate chips or melting wafers in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in short intervals and stirring until smooth to prepare for dipping.

2-Next, dip each of the 12 large pretzel rods into the melted chocolate, ensuring even coverage, then immediately add the fall-colored sprinkles for a bright, festive look.

3-Let the dipped pretzels set on parchment paper in a cool spot, allowing the chocolate to harden while you move on to decorating.

4-Attach the felt pieces cut the 4½ inches square orange for the heart, 1 inch square orange for the beak, and 1 inch by 2 inches rectangle red for the wattle along with the 23 mm googly eyes to the jar using hot glue for the turkey’s face.

5-Fill the jar with small chocolate candies like brown-coated candies or raisins, then arrange the set pretzel rods as tail feathers in the six-inch round bowl base to complete the centerpiece.
