Christmas Wreaths
List of Ingredients
1/2 cup light corn syrup
3 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons butter
green food coloring
2 1/4 cups corn flakes
red cinnamon candies
shredded coconutRecipe
Combine corn syrup, sugar and butter in a saucepan. Bring
to a boil over medium heat. Stir constantly. Continue
boiling for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat
and add a few drops of food coloring at a time until the
mixture is about the color green that you want. Remember,
you are trying to simulate the color of a Christmas
evergreen wreath. Now stir the warm syrup into the dry
corn flakes. Stir until well combined. Now drop by the
teaspoons onto waxed paper. You want to make little
round wreaths. They can be as small as an inch or you can
use all the mixture and make one huge wreath to use as a
centerpiece-dessert. Decorate you wreaths with cinnamon
candies to look life ornaments or holly berries. You also
may sprinkle on shredded coconut to look life snowy
branches. Let cool to harden. Yield": This will depend on
what size wreaths you make. You might get one big one or
lots of tiny ones.
