Preparation
Step 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 on the stove.
Add and mix quickly the coloring, extracts, then cornflakes. Drop by spoonfuls in clumps on greased wax paper and decorate with 3 red hots each.WORK QUICKLY, they are hot and become more difficult to work with as they cool. Place red-hots on wreaths while they are warm not using fingers that are buttered. A second person is helpful for this part.
Once cool, transfer to lightly greased serving/storage tray, cookie sheet or parchment paper with lightly greased fingers.
