Someone brought this in to work and I thought I could copy it without a recipe, and did! Have never worked with marshmallows before, WOW (suggestions appreciated)!! Work fast, it's hot! Hint 1: Buy generic corn flakes at the $1 store! Hint 2: If the berries don't stick on the holly , put the cold holly in the microwave for 20 sec. (on waxed paper) and then add the berries.
Ingredients:
5 cups corn flakes
3 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon green food coloring
1 (10 ounce) package regular marshmallows (or 4 c. minis)
1/2 cup red-hot candies
Directions:
1. Melt butter in a 3 quart saucepan on Low.
2. Add the marshmallows and melt completely - keep stirring.
3. Add the green food coloring - keep stirring.
4. Lower heat to Warm.
5. Add corn flakes and mix until they are all green.
6. Drop by teaspoons onto waxed paper to create the holly .
7. While each holly is still warm, add 3 Red-Hots as the berries (see Hint 1 at top if berries don't stick).
8. Repeat until all the holly is on the waxed paper.
9. Let cool and remove from waxed paper. Put on a party plate and enjoy!
