Cornflake Wreath Christmas Cookies: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Sophia Turner
  • Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 cups cornflakes
– 1 cup mini marshmallows
– ½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut (optional)
– ½ cup green candy melts or white chocolate chips (melted)
– ¼ cup butter
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Red candy pieces (for decoration)


Instructions

Creating Cornflake Wreath Christmas Cookies is a breeze if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
2. Melt Butter and Marshmallows: In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the mini marshmallows and stir until completely melted and smooth.
3. Add Vanilla: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Mix in Cornflakes: Gently fold in the cornflakes, ensuring they are evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture.
5. Shape Wreaths: Once the cornflakes are coated, use greased hands to shape small portions into wreaths, forming a circle with a hole in the middle. Place each wreath on the prepared baking sheet.
6. Melt Candy Coating: If using green candy melts, melt them according to package instructions. If using white chocolate chips, melt them in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 15 seconds until smooth.
7. Coat Wreaths: Drizzle the melted green candy or white chocolate over each wreath for a festive touch.
8. Add Decorations: While the coating is still wet, place red candy pieces around the wreaths to mimic berries.
9. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool completely until the coating hardens, which should take about 30 minutes.

These steps will guide you in creating these delightful cookies effortlessly.
