It’s hard to believe that December is here. We’re in full holiday-swing\u2014and at Allrecipes, that means baking up a storm. Our editors are filling up their cookie trays with Rosemary Shortbread Cookies, Ranger Cookie Bars, Eggnog Cookies, and so many more delicious treats.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
But despite how fancy we get, it’s hard to beat the basics. Chocolate chip, sugar, and peanut butter cookies are the season’s MVPs. But I’m here to advocate for the addition of another simply yet classic cookie option: the Christmas Wreath.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n If you’re looking for the cutest, tastiest, and most festive addition to your holiday cookie plate\u2014look no further. These Christmas Wreaths are not technically<\/em> cookies, but are right at home with all your favorites. They\u2019re crunchy, colorful, sweet, and texturally more interesting than many other holiday cookies.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n If you can make Rice Krispie Treats, you can make these beautiful Christmas Wreaths. They are made with three main ingredients: butter, marshmallow, and corn flakes. A few drops of green food dye makes the treat look like a wreath, and cinnamon red hot candies stand in for the holly berries. And a smidge of both vanilla and almond extract add so much flavor and complexity to such a simple cookie.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n Allrecipes\/Victoria Jempty<\/p>\n <\/span> My mom has been making Christmas Wreaths for as long as I can remember. Each year, she makes dozens and dozens of cookies to hand out to friends and family (and save for us to enjoy on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day). But despite the variety of treats on her cookie plates\u2014the wreaths were always the first to go.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n Making (and eating) these treats is something I look forward to every year\u2014even as an adult. It’s one of my favorite holiday traditions!\u00a0\n<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This is an easy no-bake recipe that’s sure to impress. Get your kids in on the fun\u2014and make a tradition of it! It’s sure to become your family’s favorite Christmas cookie for years to come.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n Allrecipes\/Victoria Jempty<\/p>\n <\/span> Start by melting butter in a small saucepan on the stove\u2014or in a bowl in the microwave\u2014then stir in marshmallows and cook until they’re melted. Remove from heat, add the food coloring, then stir in the cornflakes.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n With lightly greased fingers, grab golfball-sized portions of the mixture. Flatten into a disc then use your fingers to make a hole in the middle to form wreath shapes. Adjust as needed, then decorate with candies while still hot.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It’s hard to believe that December is here.
