Ingredients
1stickbutter1/2 cup
1bagmini marshmallows10 oz
Green food coloring
5cupscorn flakes cereal
Mini red chocolate candieslike mini m&ms or red hots
Twizzler's pull and peels for the bows
Instructions
Line 2 baking sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper.
If using twizzler’s pull and peels to make bows, assemble the bows now. You can place a baking sheet on top of the bows to keep them from coming apart.
In a medium pot, melt the butter and marshmallows over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the marshmallows are melted. Add in green food coloring until you have your desired green color.
Pour the melted marshmallows over the corn flakes, mixing with a spatula until all the corn flakes are covered.
To form the wreaths, I found it easiest to spray my hands with a little bit of cooking spray, then take a handful of the corn flake mixture and form it into a ball. Use the palm of your hand to flatten the ball into circle. Next use your finger to poke a hole through the middle of the circle and reshape as needed until you have a wreath shape.
Place on the lined baking sheet and add the chocolate candies right away while the marshmallows mixture is still sticky. Add a twizzler bow if desired
Place the christmas wreaths in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes to set. Remove from the fridge, serve and enjoy. Store in an airtight container.
