    List of Ingredients




    Holly Cookies



    30 large marshmallows
    4 tablespoons of butter
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    4 cups corn flakes
    green food coloring (I recommend the liquid, not paste, variety)
    cinnamon red hots candy

    Recipe




    Line three or four cookie sheets with waxed paper.

    Spray a large saucepan with non-stick spray. Melt the marshmallows and butter together over low-medium heat in the saucepan. When melted, remove from heat and add vanilla and enough green coloring to make the whole mess Christmas-y looking. Stir well to incorporate the coloring and eliminate any marbled effect. Add corn flakes directly to the pan and stir well to cover every flake with marshmallow.

    Spoon out portions of the flakes onto the wax paper lined cookie sheets. While the mixture is still warm, place three red hots atop each cookie to represent holly berries. Some people shape the mixture into wreath shapes or holly leaf shapes, but I can't be bothered and the clumps look just as pretty and taste just as good.

    This recipe makes about 25 cookies, depending upon size.
