My kids loved it. They expanded on the Christmas idea by making Christmas trees from the mixture and sprinkling it with colored candy sprinkles, gold and silver candy balls etc. Really added color to the Christas cookie platter.

My aunt use to make these when I was little so I gave them a try. They came together nicely. I followed the recipe exactly and put the bowl in a larger bowl with a little hot water to keep the mixture soft. They are very pretty on a cookie tray as they have a bright green color. They do not freeze or last long as they get a little mushy (at least in my house) so I would make these just a few days before Christmas or the event you are taking them to. Thanks for this recipe from my childhood!

Very festive looking but I found it difficult to form into wreaths not only because the marshmallow starts to stiffen but also because the Corn Flakes make for a much less dense mixture which doesn't hold together as nicely. They taste ok, but in the future I'll just be sticking with Rice Krispies.

I used these for a baby shower for twins. I used pink and blue food coloring and shaped them into baby booties and pacifiers. You can use molds and press the mixture into the mold as well. They were a hit.

We actually did not eat most of these that we made. They were cute but I think I left them out too long cuz they got really hard. I made them with my 3 kids, ages 4-9, and really the mixture is too hot for them to handle straight out the pan so I had to form the wreaths. They got to put the red hots on though.

I have never used a recipe for these, but my Mom did these with us every Christmas, starting about 1990! The only difference we would make wreaths the full plate sized, and still use the Red Hots on them for the decorations, and give them as gifts! I have been making them ever since... and every year instead of trying to figure out what to get everyone on my list, my family makes these wreaths and another plate with Fudge, Divinity, cookies, and other goodies! They are a big hit every year, and every year I have more and more people that ask when we are going to make them... they can't wait for their goodie plates each year!
