Thanksgiving Rice Krispie Turkey Legs

Ingredients:

• 6 cups Cocoa Krispies cereal
• 5 tablespoons salted butter
• 2 cups mini marshmallows
• 12 mini pretzel sticks (for “bones”)
• 12 large marshmallows (for “drumstick ends”)

Instructions:

1. Melt Butter & Marshmallows
   In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the mini marshmallows and stir until smooth and fully melted.
2. Add the Cereal
   Remove from heat and immediately stir in the Cocoa Krispies until evenly coated.
3. Shape the Drumsticks
   Scoop out portions of the mixture (about ½ cup each) and shape them into oval “drumstick” forms while warm.
4. Make the Bones
   Stick a mini pretzel into one end of each large marshmallow — this will be the “bone” tip.
5. Attach the Bone to the Leg
   Press the pretzel end gently into the Rice Krispie leg to attach. If needed, use a little melted marshmallow as “glue.”
6. Set & Serve
   Place on wax paper to cool and set completely. Once firm, serve and enjoy your chocolatey turkey legs.

Tips:

• For extra shine, brush the outside lightly with melted butter or spray with cooking spray.
• Use regular Rice Krispies and add cocoa powder if you prefer a lighter chocolate flavor.
