My Cornflake Wreaths have become our favorite holiday tradition. I started making these with my kids years ago and now the kitchen isn’t complete during Christmas without little hands helping shape these chewy green wreaths. The best part is they come together in just 20 minutes which is perfect when you’re juggling all the holiday chaos.
Simple Holiday Joy
You won’t believe how easy these treats are to make. My kids eyes light up every time we pull out the marshmallows and cornflakes. The buttery chewy texture gets everyone sneaking bites while we work. We make them for school parties bake sales and they always steal the show on our holiday dessert table.
What Goes In Them

- Butter: Four tablespoons salted butter makes them perfectly rich.
