Thanksgiving is all about family, gratitude, and of course, delicious food. This year, add some fun and creativity to your Thanksgiving feast with our easy Turkey Sugar Cookies. They're sure to be gobbled up!
These adorable turkey cookies are not only delicious but also super-duper easy to make — a great way to get kids involved in low-risk Thanksgiving prep. I love how each of the kids created turkeys with personality.
At Macaroni KID, we skip the fluff and get straight to the good stuff. No need to scroll through pages of unnecessary content — our recipes are easy to find. Now let's get cooking!
Turkey Sugar Cookies
Ingredients:
- 24-round sugar cookies (you can make your own or buy store-bought!)

Now, waddle your way into the kitchen with the kids and follow these easy-peasy directions.
Directions:
- Follow the instructions to bake or prepare your cookies.
