Yield 12 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 cupcakes, prepared
1 (8 ounce) bag brach's maple nut decorative candies
1 (8 ounce) can white frosting
1 (5 ounce) package yellow gel food coloring
1/4 cup non-pareils (red or green)
1/2 cup chocolate chips or 1/2 cup butterscotch chips
1 (12 ounce) package cookies (any kind)
1/2 cup yellow frosting (for the 'plate')

Steps:

Bake and cool your favorite cupcake recipe.
Place frosting on the cupcake and top each with a cookie while the frosting is soft to 'adhere' the cookie-plate to the cupcake.
Slice the maple nut candies thin and layer them as 'turkey'.
Dab some white frosting next to it for 'mashed potatoes' followed with a little dab of yellow gel food color as 'butter'.
Melt your butterscotch or chocolate chips and thin with a little vegetable oil.
Drizzle over the 'turkey' as gravy.
Finish it off with the 'cranberries' (red colored sugar or non-perils) and little green 'peas' or 'beans'.
