Christmas Wreath Cookies

1 stick of butter (1/2 cup)

30 large marshmallows

6 teaspoons drops of green gel food coloring or 1 and 1/4 liquid green food coloring

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

5 cups cornflakes

1 bottle of red hot candies or 1/2 cup red candy coated chocolates such as mini M&M's

cooking spray

Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Place the marshmallows and butter in a large bowl. Microwave in 30 second increments until melted.

Add the green food coloring and vanilla; stir until the marshmallow mixture is smooth.

Add the cornflakes to the bowl and gently stir to coat the cereal evenly with the marshmallow mixture.

Pack the mixture into a greased 1/4 cup measuring cup and turn out onto the sheet pan. Use your fingers to make a hole in the middle to form a wreath shape and decorate with red candies. It's easiest to form the wreath holes if your fingers are damp or coated in cooking spray.

Cool completely until firm and serve.
