Christmas Corn Flake Wreaths

1. 1

   Place cornflakes in a large bowl. Set aside.

2. 2

   Place a couple sheets of wax paper on the counter top and lightly butter them. (The wreaths are quite gooey and will stick to the paper if not buttered.)

3. 3

   Keep a butter dish handy to butter your fingertips before forming each wreath.

4. 4

   Melt butter and marshmallows in a microwaveable bowl using medium power in 45-second increments, stirring each time. Once melted and smooth, stir in food coloring. Pour marshmallow mixture over cornflakes. Stir to coat flakes.

5. 5

   Set about 1/2 cup marshmallow/cereal mixture on wax paper. With buttered fingertips, create a hole in the center to form a wreath. Dab fingers in butter and repeat, moving quickly as the marshmallow-cereal sets up quickly.

6. 6

   Recipe makes about 12 wreaths.

7. 7

   Decorate with Red Hot candies, if desired. Store in an airtight container on wax paper.

8. 8

   Note: Red Hots may be manufactured in a facility that also produces peanuts and would not be safe for those with tree nut allergies to consume.
