Cinnamon Roll Turkeys




I made these for the granddaughters this morning and needless to say, they loved them.  What a fun tradition to have with your little ones on Thanksgiving morning.  Thank you Pillsbury for this great idea.

1 can (17.5 oz) Pillsbury Grands refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing
10 slices bacon
5 candy corns
5 red mini candy coated chocolate candies
10 candy eyeballs
15 mini pretzel sticks

Heat oven to 350 degrees.  Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.

Set icing aside.  Separate dough into 5 rolls; place about 3 inches apart on cookie sheet.  Unroll each roll about 1 inch, tuck dough into roll to create neck of turkey.

Bake 20 minutes or until light golden brown  Remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, cook bacon until crisp; drain on paper towel lined plate.  Cut bacon in half.  Tuck 3 or 4 halves of bacon into back of each cinnamon roll so they stick up and look like tail feathers.

Drizzle tops of rolls with icing.  Decorate turkeys with candy eyeballs, candy corn and candy-coated chocolate candies.  Before serving, place pretzel sticks underneath each turkey to resemble turkey's feet.
