Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Set out one or two sheets of waxed paper. Fill a skillet with 1 inch of very hot water. Place the saucepan into the skillet so cookie dough stays warm.

Step 2

Quickly drop a heaping tablespoonful of cookie dough onto the waxed paper, and use lightly greased fingers to form it into a wreath shape. Immediately decorate cookie with red hot candies. Repeat to shape and decorate remaining cookies.

Step 3

Allow cookies to cool to room temperature before removing from waxed paper, about 15 minutes. Store in an airtight container.

Step 4

Gather ingredients.

Step 5

Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add marshmallows, and cook stirring constantly, until melted.

Step 6

Remove from the heat, stir in food coloring and vanilla, then stir in cornflakes.
