How to Make Holly Wreaths
- In a large, microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter and marshmallows. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until completely melted and smooth. Alternatively, melt in a double boiler or over low heat on the stovetop, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
- Stir in the vanilla extract and green food coloring. Add food coloring gradually until you reach your desired shade of green.
- Remove from heat and gently stir in the cornflakes until evenly coated. The mixture will be hot; use caution.
- Line two baking sheets with wax paper. Lightly spray your hands with cooking spray.
- Working quickly (the mixture will harden quickly), shape the mixture into wreath shapes on the prepared baking sheets. You may need to re-spray your hands as you work.
- Immediately press small cinnamon candies into the wreaths to resemble holly berries.
- Allow the wreaths to cool completely (at least 1 hour) or refrigerate for faster cooling. Once cooled, they will be firm.
