We will be making cornflake wreaths tonight after supper. They are so easy yet so fun to make. Here is the recipe if interested.
1/2 cup butter
4 cups miniature marshmallows
1 teaspoon green food coloring
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 cups cornflakes cereal
1 (2.25 ounce) package cinnamon red hot candies
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.

ReplyDeletewhen you are posting, if you highlight the word you want to link, then click (in your toolbar) on the earth with the loop around it it will pop-up with a place to link. You then take the URL that you have copied and then paste it into the link box.
When you hover your cursor over the word, it will turn into the pointing hand...so others can click on that word and connect straight to the address you are referring to.
