Scotcheroos
1 cup Karo Light Corn Syrup
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 drop green gel food coloring
5 1/2 cups corn flakes cereal
Christmas Trees
1/2 cup white chocolate, melted
8 mini peanut butter cups

1
Line two 8 or 9-inch round baking pans with parchment paper. Set aside.
2
In a large saucepan, combine corn syrup with sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until sugar dissolves. Bring mixture to a boil. Boil for 1 minute then remove from heat.
3
Stir in peanut butter and food coloring until smooth. Add cereal and fold gently until evenly coated.
4
Pour mixture into prepared baking pans. Pat gently with back of wooden spoon. Allow to cool and set, about 30 minutes.
5
Remove from pans by lifting the parchment paper. Place on cutting board and cut each circle into 8 triangles. Separate slightly so there is a space between each triangle.

For the Christmas trees, add melted white chocolate to a sandwich sized plastic bag. Snip off the corner and drizzle over the scotcheroos. Add rainbow chips and star to trees. Using the melted white chocolate, add a drop to the top of a peanut butter cup and press into the bottom of the tree for the trunk.

Allow chocolate to set, about 10 minutes. Store in airtight container for several days to maintain freshness.
