Melt 3\/4 cup butter in a large pot.<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>3. Add 1 bag of mini marshmallows.<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>4. Stir until mini marshmallows are melted; add 2 tsp vanilla.<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>5. Add about 4 tsp of green food coloring until you get a vibrant green.<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>6. Pour in 7 c of Corn Flakes and mix until well coated with marshmallow\/butter mix.<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>7. Grease a spoon with butter (but you can also use your hands), grab a bit of the Corn Flake mixture, and drop onto waxed paper. Make one large wreath or smaller mini wreaths.<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>8. Shape mounds into wreaths.<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>9. Start decorating with red candies for berries.<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>10. The finished product!<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>Test Kitchen Tips<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Spray your hands and wax paper with cooking spray; the mixture is pretty sticky.<\/li>\n<li>Use any small red candy you&#8217;d like. We used cinnamon candies, but mini M&#038;M&#8217;s or red pearled candies would work too.<\/li>\n<li>Once you spoon the Corn Flake mixture out, work quickly. The mixture sets up quickly and you want it to be sticky when placing the red candies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>Test Kitchen Review: A Pinterest Pass!<\/h3>\n<p>These wreaths turned out adorable! They are super easy and inexpensive to make. The texture is similar to a Rice Krispy treat, just made with Corn Flakes. Wrap in a cellophane bag, you have a lovely (and tasty) holiday hostess gift.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Looking around Pinterest for a bit of holiday pin-spiration we came across adorable edible wreaths.
