Grinchy Christmas Wreathes

Makes 18

Ingredients

  • 8 Tablespoon butter
  • 3 cups (30) large marshmallows
  • A few drops of green food coloring gel
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 cups cornflakes
  • Red candy coated chocolates (M&Ms)

Method

  1. Line a large baking/ cookie tray with baking parchment and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside
  2. Add butter to a large pan and melt over a low heat
  3. Add in the marshmallows and cook, stirring constantly, until melted and smooth
  4. Remove pan from the heat, adding in the food coloring and vanilla extract, whisking until evenly blended
  5. Add the cornflakes and stir gently until well coated
  6. Working quickly to avoid the mixture hardening, use two small spoons (or your lightly oiled fingers) to drop small amounts- roughly 2 tablespoons, of mixture onto your prepared cookie sheet. Using  your fingers shape these mounds into wreath shapes with open centres
  7. While the wreath cookies are still sticky. Add the red candy coated chocolates for berries
  8. Set the finished wreath cookies aside to dry for several hours until they are fil and hold their shape
  9. The finished cookies can be kept for 1 month in an airtight container at room temperature
