Christmas Wreaths


We got together with some neighbors to make this festive, fun, holiday treat (remember these, Mom?!). The kids had a great time - get ready for a mess!


1/3 cup margarine or butter
1 package (10 oz. about 40) regular marshmallows, OR 4 cups miniature marshmallows
1 teaspoon green food coloring
6 cups Corn Flakes
Red cinnamon candies
vanilla frosting


On the stove: Melt margarine in large saucepan over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat. Stir in food coloring.
OR
In the microwave: Microwave margarine and marshmallows at HIGH 2 minutes in microwave-safe bowl. Stir to combine. Microwave at HIGH 1 minute longer. Stir until smooth, then add food coloring.

Add corn flakes cereal. Stir until well coated.

Portion warm cereal mixture evenly by using a 1/4 cup dry measure coated with cooking spray. Using sprayed fingers, quickly shape into individual wreaths. Dot with cinnamon candies, using prepared frosting to hold candies in place. Store in single layer in airtight container.
