It’s that awesome time of year, when we feast on glorious Thanksgiving treats and homemade snacks. I went on a little hunt for some fun thanksgiving treats for kids, and found 50 scrumptiously cute Thanksgiving treat ideas. I’ve stumbled upon everything from turkey cookies to acorn donuts!

These little owl cookies are one of my favorites! And, they are fitting for just about any occasion. I found this beautiful picture on Flickr but was unable to track down the actual recipe and instructions. Although, it looks rather self explanatory. Use your favorite sugar cookie recipes, adding two small circles on top for the eyes and a few notches on the bottom with a fork for the feathers, and then bake. After slightly cooling, add chocolate chips on the eye area and an almond for the beak.

Thanksgiving Cookie Recipes

Cookies are easy Thanksgiving treats because there are so many different ways to dress them up. I love the candy corn turkey cookies and pilgrim hat made out of a mini Reese’s Peanut Butter cup. Not only are they adorable, but they look quite yummy, too! For an easier alternative, consider using thanksgiving shaped cookie cutters in a variety of shapes–fall leaves, acorns, pumpkins, turkeys, etc. Top your sugar cookies off with a colorful icing, and garnish them with the toppings of your choice.

With Thanksgiving so close to Halloween, sometimes we still have bowls full of candy stock piled in the kitchen cabinets. It’s nice to offer some healthier snack options the week of Thanksgiving; fresh fruit, popcorn, whole wheat turkey bread, pumpkin pie almonds. Wait, did I say healthy? What I meant was– kind of nutritious. : )
