Christmas Wreaths

Ingredients

• 0.5 cups butter
• 30 large marshmallows
• 1.5 teaspoons green food coloring
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 cups cornflakes cereal
• 2 tablespoons cinnamon red hot candies

Instructions

1. 1

   Gather ingredients.

2. 2

   Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add marshmallows, and cook stirring constantly, until melted.

3. 3

   Remove from the heat, stir in food coloring and vanilla, then stir in cornflakes.

4. 4

   Set out one or two sheets of waxed paper. Fill a skillet with 1 inch of very hot water. Place the saucepan into the skillet so cookie dough stays warm.

5. 5

   Quickly drop a heaping tablespoonful of cookie dough onto the waxed paper, and use lightly greased fingers to form it into a wreath shape. Immediately decorate cookie with red hot candies. Repeat to shape and decorate remaining cookies.

6. 6

   Allow cookies to cool to room temperature before removing from waxed paper, about 15 minutes. Store in an airtight container.
