Ingredients

3/4 cup peanut butter
1 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
2 packets Gushers fruit snacks
1 Fruit Roll-Up (red and yellow)
1 Fruit Roll-Up (blue and green)
1/4 cup chocolate sprinkles
8 almond slices (cut just the 1/4" tip of each almond off to make the "beak)
16 dried wild blueberries OR mini chocolate chips

Directions

1In a small bowl, use a fork or electric beater to mix the peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla together. The mixture should resemble a soft clay. You want to be able to mold it and have it stay in place without melting. To firm up the mixture, add a tablespoon of powdered sugar at a time until the perfect consistency is reached. To soften the mixture, add a half-tablespoon of peanut butter until the perfect consistency is reached.
2Using 3/4 of the mixture, roll 8 balls the size of large grapes, then roll them into the chocolate sprinkles. Place these balls into a small candy wrapper. Roll the remaining mixture into 8 mini balls, about the size of a large blueberry. Gently press the blueberries for eyes and a small piece of sliced almond into the center for the beak. Place these small balls on top of the larger, chocolate spinkled balls.
3Gently set two Gushers into the two sides of the candy wrapper to form "wings."
4Open and unroll the Fruit Roll-Ups. Cut them in half lengthwise, then press the red/yellow and green/blue pieces together to create a seam. With a pair of sharp scissors, cut this large, multi-colored piece of fruit roll-up into 3-4" by 2" squares. Gather them into "fans" then gently set these fans into the back of each candy wrapper to create tails.
5Refrigerate your sweet little turkeys until ready to serve.
