Christmas Wreaths – Christmas Cookies Recipes

Ingredients:

• ½ cup butter
• 30 large marshmallows
• 1 ½ teaspoons green food coloring
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 cups cornflakes cereal
• 2 tablespoons cinnamon red hot candies

Directions:

Step 1

In a large saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Cook, stirring constantly, until marshmallows are melted.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Place one or two sheets of waxed paper on the table. Fill a skillet halfway with 1 inch of boiling water. Place the saucepan in the skillet to keep the cookie dough warm.

Step 4

Drop a heaping tablespoon of cookie dough onto the waxed paper and mold it into a wreath shape with lightly lubricated fingertips. Decorate the cookie right away with red hot candies. Repeat with the remaining cookies to shape and decorate.

Step 5

Give the cookies fifteen minutes or so to cool to room temperature before taking them from the wax paper. Keep enclosed in a sealed container.
