Ingredients

  • ½ cup butter
  • 4 cups mini marshmallows
  • 1 teaspoon green food coloring
  • ½ teaspoon almond extract
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 cups cornflakes cereal
  • 1 (2.25-ounce) package cinnamon red hot candies

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Prepare a piece of greased wax paper and set it aside.
  2. Add the marshmallows and butter to a large microwave-safe dish. Microwave for 2 minutes. Stir and heat for 2 more minutes.
  3. Working quickly add the green coloring and extracts. Stir, then add the cornflakes. Mix until evenly coated.
  4. Scoop a spoonful of the mixture and drop it in clumps on the wax paper. To make a wreath shape lightly grease your fingers and form a hole in the center of each clump. Add several red hots to the newly shaped wreath.
  5. Lightly grease a storage container. Allow the treats to cool and set before transferring them to the container.
  6. Makes 8-10 wreaths.

Notes

  • Store the cookies for 5-7 days in a lightly greased airtight container, separating layers with wax paper, or wrap each cookie and freeze together in a freezer Ziploc for 4-6 weeks.
