Christmas Wreath Cookies

My daughter made these for her boys. They're very good.

 Ingredients
    * 1/2 cup butter
    * 4 cups miniature marshmallows
    * 1 teaspoon green food coloring
    * 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
    * 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    * 4 cups cornflakes cereal
    * 1 (2.25 ounce) package cinnamon red hot candies

Directions

   1. Microwave marshmallows and butter on High for 2 minutes. Stir, then microwave on High for 2 minutes more. Stir. (This can be done in a double boiler.)

   2. Add and mix quickly the coloring, extracts, then cornflakes. Drop by spoonfuls onto greased wax paper. Decorate with 3 red hots each.

   3. When cool, place on lightly greased serving tray with lightly greased fingers.

Makes 3 dozen cookies.
