Have fun creating a special memory this holiday season by surprising your grandchildren with these Rice Krispie Turkey Drumsticks.

It's time for the holidays and big turkey dinners with all the trimmings. My favorite part of any holiday dinner is the turkey. In my opinion, the best part of the turkey isn't the tender white meat. It is the moist, juicy dark meat from the drumsticks! I'm not the only one; two drumsticks never seem to be enough. Make these Rice Krispies Turkey Drumsticks and everyone can have one of their own!
