Cornflake Wreath Cookies Recipes

CORNFLAKE WREATHS

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet or two with wax paper. Set aside.
• Measure 6 cups of cornflakes into a large bowl. Set aside.
• Melt the marshmallows & butter together. In a large pot over medium low heat, melt 1 stick of butter and the entire 12 oz bag of marshmallows. Stirring often so the marshmallows don't burn to the bottom of the pan.
• Stir in the food coloring & cornflakes. Mix in 1 tsp of green food coloring and the 6 cups of cornflake cereal. Stir to completely coat the cornflakes with the marshmallow mixture.
• Form into wreath cookies on the wax paper. Drop the cornflake mixture by the 1/4 or 1/3 cup mounds on the wax paper. Coat your hands in pan spray so the marshmallows don't stick to your hands. Push your finger into the center of the cookie and wiggle it around to form a hole. Then form the wreath so it is a complete circle.
• Add the "holly berries". Place 3 mini red M&M's together on the wreath to mimic holly berries. You can also use red hots.
• Cooling & Storing. Let the wreath cookies cool for at least an hour. The store them on the wax paper at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
