List of Ingredients

1 1/2 tablespoons margarine
5 ounces marshmallows
3 cups crisp rice cereal
A few drops green food coloring
1 tub ready-to-spread vanilla frosting
2 pounds "M&M's"® Plain Chocolate Candies for the Holidays
1 red satin bow




Recipe

Melt margarine in a saucepan over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat and tint with food coloring. Mix in crisp rice cereal. Coat your hands with margarine and form mixture into a ring on wax paper. (Ring should be about 7 inches in diameter.) Stir a few drops of food coloring in the frosting until blended thoroughly. Reserve 1/4 cup and set aside. Using a butter knife or spatula, spread a thin layer of frosting over the entire ring. Place green "M&M's"® Plain Chocolate Candies for the Holidays all over the ring. For any open spots, dab some of the vanilla frosting on the back of the green "M&M's"® Plain Chocolate Candies for the Holidays and place where needed. Dab frosting on the red "M&M's"® Plain Chocolate Candies for the Holidays and place 3 candies in a cluster to create berries. Dab frosting on the back of the bow, and place on wreath. Slice to serve!
