Holiday Wreath

Country Woman Christmas

My mom gave me this recipe. I look forward to crafting and sharing the wreath every Christmas. It's crisp and chewy, and a real eye-catcher on the table.

SERVINGS: 10-12

CATEGORY: Dessert

METHOD: Other stovetop

TIME: Prep/Total Time: 25 min.

Ingredients:

  • 30 large marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup butter (no substitutes)
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 20 to 22 drops green food coloring
  • 3-1/2 cups cornflakes
  • Red-hot candies
  • Red shoestring licorice and one red Dot candy, optional

Directions:

In a heavy saucepan, combine marshmallows, butter, vanilla and food coloring; cook and stir over low heat until smooth. Remove from the hat; add cornflakes and mix well. Drop by spoonfuls onto greased foil, forming a 9-in. wreath. Decorate with red-hots. If desired, form a bow with licorice and place on wreath; add Dot on top of bow. Yield: 10-12 servings.

    My grandmother used to make this every year for her family. She has passed the tradition to me and my kids love it. I make several every year.
