1bag (12 oz)white candy melts(or 1 cup vanilla baking chips)
1bag (10 oz)mini marshmallows(set aside 24)
8cupsCocoa Krispies cereal
1/4cupbutter
Instructions
Break the pretzel rods in half and melt the candy according to package directions. (I usually do 15-30 second intervals in the microwave, stirring well each time.)
6 pretzel rods, 1 bag (12 oz) white candy melts
Dip the smooth end of the pretzel rod and then press two marshmallows onto the end. Repeat until 12 "bones" are dipped. Let sit for about 5 minutes.
1 bag (10 oz) mini marshmallows
Dip the pretzels again, covering 2/3 of the rod. Let sit.
In a saucepan, melt the butter and marshmallows, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and stir in cereal. Mix until coated well.
8 cups Cocoa Krispies cereal, 1/4 cup butter, 1 bag (10 oz) mini marshmallows
Allow to cool just a bit and then form the cereal mixture around each pretzel rod, forming a drumstick. Don't try this until cooled enough, or it won't hold its shape! Spray your hands with cooking spray to keep the marshmallow from sticking while you work.
Place on a wax paper lined baking sheet and let sit until fully cooled.
Notes
Wait to shape the turkey legs until the cereal mixture has cooled enough to hold its shape
Spray your hands with nonstick cooking spray as you work to keep the mixture from sticking to you (you may have to do this several times)
Don't refrigerate-the pretzels will get stale and soggy
Best served the same day or the pretzels start to get soft
