Start by gathering all your ingredients. For cookies, combine flour, butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla in a bowl. For pies and cakes, preheat your oven to the appropriate temperature according to your selected recipe.

For cookies, roll the dough out on a floured surface until about a quarter-inch thick. For pies, mix together the filling ingredients until smooth and pour them into the prepared crust. Ensure the oven reaches the necessary heat before placing them inside.

Cut out shapes using a turkey-shaped cookie cutter. Bake in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until golden. Remove them when baked and let cool on wire racks to harden before decorating.

Pour the filling into the pie crusts and place in the oven. Bake for around 45-60 minutes for pumpkin and pecan pies. For tarts, adjust the timing based on the crust type, usually baking around 30-40 minutes.

While the desserts are baking, prepare the icing for the cookies. Mix powdered sugar with milk until you reach a smooth consistency. Divide the icing into bowls and color each to make vibrant decorations.

Once baked, remove the pies from the oven and let them cool completely. This step allows the filling to set properly, ensuring easier slicing later on during serving.

Once your cookies are cool, use the icing to decorate the turkey shapes. Let your creativity flow with colors and designs, making each cookie unique and fun for your guests.

For cakes, follow generic cake guidelines, adding spices such as nutmeg and cinnamon to elevate the flavor. Ensure the cakes are fully cooled before frosting them with your choice of icing.

To impress your guests, serve all desserts following the turkey meal. This timing allows everyone to savor their savory dishes first before diving into the delightful sweetness of Turkey Desserts.
