Christmas Wreath Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add marshmallows, and cook until melted, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, and stir in the food coloring, vanilla, and cornflakes.
• Quickly drop heaping tablespoonfuls of the mixture onto waxed paper, and form into a wreath shape with lightly greased fingers. Immediately decorate with red hot candies. Allow to cool to room temperature before removing from waxed paper, and storing in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Place marshmallows and butter in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave, uncovered, on high until butter is melted and marshmallows are puffed, about 45 seconds. Tint with green food coloring. Stir in cornflakes. , On a waxed paper-lined baking sheet, divide mixture into 8 portions. With buttered hands, working quickly, shape each portion into a 3-in. wreath. Decorate immediately with M&M's, pressing to adhere. Let stand until set.

Steps:

• Microwave marshmallows and butter on High for 2 minutes. Stir, then microwave on High for 2 minutes more. Stir. (This can be done in a double boiler if one doesn't have a microwave.)
• Add and mix quickly the coloring, extracts, then cornflakes. Drop by spoonfuls in clumps on greased wax paper and decorate with 3 red hots each.
• Once cool, transfer to lightly greased serving/storage tray with lightly greased fingers.

Steps:

• Melt butter, add marshmallows. When mixture is smooth, add extracts, coloring, and cereal. Form into wreath shapes, and decorate with red cinnamon imperial candies while mixture is still warm. *Make sure to butter your hands before shaping wreaths, as the mixture is sticky. I've found it easier to use a large scoop or large cooking spoon to drop the mixture onto waxed paper, and then use my index finger to make a hole in the middle while pressing the rest of the mixture into a wreath shape. Let sit until you can lift the whole cookie without it falling apart -- or enjoy them warm and sticky and claim that they just didn't "turn out" ;) The yield depends entirely on how big you make your cookies.

Steps:

• In large saucepan, melt butter over low heat.
• Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat. Stir in food coloring.

• Stir in green food color to desired shade of green. Add white vanilla baking chips to marshmallow mixture, and stir until melted, microwaving an additional 30 seconds if necessary.
• Stir in cereal until evenly coated.
