Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- 1 package marshmallows 10oz/283g package
- ½ cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 ½ cups Cornflakes cereal
- green food coloring
- mini red M&Ms
Instructions
- Line two large baking sheets with parchment or wax paper.
- In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted and smooth.
- Stir in peanut butter and vanilla until well combined. Remove from heat and mix in green food coloring until you reach your desired shade.
- Gently fold in the cornflakes until evenly coated with the green mixture.
- Lightly grease your hands (or use a spoon) and scoop about ¼ cup of mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Shape into small wreaths with a hole in the center.
- Press 2–3 red mini M&Ms onto each wreath before the mixture sets.
- Allow the wreaths to cool completely at room temperature until firm.
Notes
- Work quickly when shaping—the mixture sets fast. If needed, keep the pot over very low heat to stay pliable.
- For a glossy finish, spray your hands lightly with cooking spray before shaping.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
