Turkey Ranch Cheese Ball

Turkey Ranch Cheese Ball

*Purchased Ranch Cheese Ball or cheese ball of choice, from your deli or grocery store

*Pretzel Sticks, for turkey feathers

*Beef Jerky Stick or fat Pretzel stick, cut to size desired Note: I think fat pretzel stick will be better if you aren’t going to eat cheese ball right away

*2 to 3 Caramels per turkey, Kraft for head

*Candy Eyes, Wilton

*1/4 cup Chocolate Melting Wafers or chocolate chips, melted

*Cinnamon Bear, thin slice length wise for snood/wattle

*Candy Corn, beak

Turkey Head:

Cut pretzel or Beef Jerky Stick the length desired or about 4 to 5 inches.

Microwave caramels 5 to 10 seconds just to soften not melted. Form the melted caramels to the top of your preferred stick and shape into a turkey head. Then dip caramel head on the stick into your melted chocolate and allow to set just enough to set the eyes and beak and then allow to dry by placing in the front of the cold cheese ball, press in a few inches and allow to set in the fridge 5 minutes.

Remove from the fridge and add the slice of cinnamon bear using the sticky side it should stick to the candy corn making the snood/wattle.

Add the pretzels as desired in the cheese ball making the fan of feathers, see pictures.
