Turkey Platter (November 2013)

Since Thanksgiving and Hanukkah were the on same day this year (so crazy), I had been cookie-ing overtime lately.  Here is what I decided to bring to Thanksgiving this year: a Simple Thanksgiving Turkey Platter, ala Sweet Sugar Belle. 


I used a snowman cookie cutter for the body and a leaf cookie cutter for the feathers.


Seriously, very easy.  But...not so impressive without the platter.


With the rest of the dough, I made a few turkeys using a flower cookie cutter (inspired by Palm Beach Pastry on Etsy) and mini leaves to give to classroom teachers...you know, to say, "Thanks."


The leaves were a mini version of my autumn leaves from last year, giving me another excuse to play with food color spray mist.


This year, with the craziness the holidays always bring, I was "thankful" for any shortcut I could find, and this cookie platter was just the thing.
