    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 coconut

    Recipe





    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.
