Thanksgiving cookies in the past have been traditional turkeys, mini turkeys, flower turkeys, football turkeys. . . this year, I opted for a gang of goofy turkeys. Eight different designs and not a turkey cutter in sight.
Design inspiration came from SweetSugarBelle to use an ice cream cone cutter to create a turkey.
I then followed The Bearfoot Baker's directions to use an acorn cookie cutter for another funny turkey design.
Once I made these designs, I decided that "goofy" turkeys would be my theme for the family cookies this year.
For the teen girls, a glam turkey with a tag that said "girls just want to have fun."
Since my niece, Kendall, was recently named as an all-area athlete, I decided to make her a volleyball turkey complete with bling on the feathers and toes.
It is interesting how the same cutter can be used to create different designs.
A pineapple cutter was used for the cookie for the older boys. The cookies are not exactly how I had envisioned them, but they will work with a tag that says, "a goofy turkey for a goofy guy."
For the younger children, I made turkey puzzles inspired by, MunchkinMunchies.
A Christmas ornament and a small ice cream sundae cutter (see group photo at the top), completed the collection.
Gobble, gobble, gobble!
Totally terrific turkeys. You continue to amaze me at how much you personalize. The family will be gobbling with smiles on their faces.
