How to Make Sharon's Holiday Holly Leaf Treats

  1. Grease a large bowl and line a baking sheet with wax paper.
  2. In a large saucepan over low heat, melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted margarine.
  3. Add 10 ounces (2 cups) of mini marshmallows to the melted margarine and stir constantly until completely melted and smooth.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and a few drops of red and green food coloring (adjust to your desired color intensity).
  5. Gently fold in 5 cups of corn flakes until evenly coated.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared wax paper, leaving space between each blob.
  7. While the mixture is still slightly warm and malleable, press a red cinnamon dot into the center of each blob to create the holly leaf effect.
