I've been meaning to post this recipe for Elsie and Marcus, and who ever else might want it. Once again, it's a recipe for the non-cook. Super easy! And, these cookies look very festive on a tray.
Ingredients
1 bag of small marshmellows
3/4 cup butter
7 cups of corn flakes
green food coloring
The little red hots used for baking (in the cake decorating section)
Get a BIG bowl. In the microwave melt the butter and marshmellows together stirring now and then so they blend well. Add the food coloring until you get a nice hollyesque green. Pour this mixture over your seven cups of corn flakes (nice to have them already measured in another huge bowl to the side). Gently fold and stir in until all the corn flakes are covered. Take a spoon and dollop out clumps on wax paper. You can try to form them into wreaths, but be warned, this mixture hardens pretty fast so you've got to do this part quickly. Put two to three red hots on each clump. That will help them look like wreathes. Let them sit overnight to "set." They freeze well too so you can put them away for parties.
