Marshmallow Christmas Wreath Treats

Marshmallow Christmas Wreath Treats

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups (112g) cornflakes
  • 3-4 cups (129–172g) mini marshmallows (or about 40 jumbo marshmallows)
  • 3 Tbsp Granulated Butter Seasoning (Butter Buds or Molly McButter sprinkles)
  • 2 Tbsp (30g) water
  • 1/4 tsp (1.5g) salt
  • 1/4 tsp (1g) vanilla extract
  • mini holiday M&M candies
  • green food coloring
  • nonstick cooking spray

Instructions
 

  • Lay out two pieces of parchment paper and spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Measure out your cornflakes in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
  • Add the marshmallows, granulated butter flavoring, water, vanilla, and salt to a medium sized saucepan, and mix on medium heat until fully melted.
  • Once fully melted, add in your green food coloring and stir until combined. (Note: we used the Wilton food coloring colors of blue and yellow to create green – 2 drops of each color)
  • Remove the mixture from the stove, and pour over the cornflakes in your large mixing bowl. Stir continuously until evenly mixed in and coated with the marshmallow mixture.
  • With a greased medium cookie scoop or spoon, scoop out balls of the mixture and place it onto your parchment paper.
  • Using your hands, remove some of the mixture in the middle of each mound and use your fingers to press and form a ring (wreath). You might want to spray some nonstick cooking spray on your hands to keep the mixture from sticking to you. Don’t worry if they seem a bit loose or flimsy. They will harden once they cool.
  • Before the treats cool completely, top each wreath with red mini M&M’s.
  • Let the treats sit for at least 30 minutes in order to cool completely.
