Cupcakes:
Prepare cupcakes following the directions on the box, but fill the cupcake liners with a little extra batter so you end up with a total of 20 cupcakes. Frost the cupcakes when they've cooled completely.
While the cupcakes are baking, assemble the turkeys.
Turkey Cookies:
Using a toothpick, apply a dab of peanut butter to the backs of two eyes and attach side by side to the upper portion of a Nutter Butter cookie.
Apply a dab of peanut butter to the cut side of a Reeses piece (turkey beak) and place on the cookie just below the eyes.
Cut a 1/4 to 1/2 inch strip of licorice (turkey waddle) with kitchen shears and apply to the right side of the "beak" using peanut butter.
Repeat these steps to make 20 turkey cookies.
Cupcake Assembly:
Use a knife to make a small slit in the top center of each frosted cupcake and insert a turkey cookie.
Insert candy corn (7 per cupcake) with the narrow tip downward in a fan-like manner around the back half of the cupcake to resemble tail feathers.
Note:
Cupcakes may be baked and Turkey Cookies may be decorated a day in advance, but wait until closer to serving time, to assemble the turkey cupcakes.
