These easy to make turkey-shaped lollipops are a Thanksgiving treat that is sure to get gobbled up in no time.

Turkey Suckers - A Cute Thanksgiving Dessert Recipe

Today I have another super easy-to-make sucker recipe to share with you all. Since our Halloween Frankenstein Suckers where such a hit, I know you guys will love these cute Turkey Suckers.

These adorably sweet turkey suckers are perfect for serving at your Thanksgiving party.

Although they might look difficult to make, putting them together is, in fact, super simple. Check out the step-by-step instructions below.

To make these little guys you will need orange, yellow, green, and red Jolly Ranchers, orange Tic-Tacs, candy eyeballs, Red Hot candies, and lollipop sticks.

Putting together these turkey suckers is truly a simple process.

Start by sticking together 2 yellow Jolly Ranchers vertically, making sure that they are touching.

Then take your red, orange and green jolly ranchers and stick them above the yellow ones in a fan motion.

Also, be sure to leave enough space so that you will be able to place a lollipop stick in them later.

Once you have all your Jolly Ranchers in place pop them into the oven until the Jolly Ranchers melt together (should take around 5-6 minutes).

After removing from the oven immediately roll the end of a lollipop stick in each melted sucker towards the bottom.

If the suckers start to harden, grab a lighter. Carefully, hold the flame for a few seconds where you want the candies to go. The flame will melt the sucker just enough so that you can stick the candies on.
