Instructions

Bows

Peel 1 strand from the Twizzler pull and peel. Create a bow shape and squeeze the middle to stick together.
Press one of the white nonpareils in the center of the bow where you squeezed it together.
Create 12-14 of them and set aside.

Christmas Cookies

Add the 1/2 cup butter to a large saucepan. Melt over medium heat.
Add the 35 large marshmallows and let them melt into the butter.
Remove the pot from the stove. Add in the 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 1/2 teaspoons green food color and stir until all of the marshmallows are green.
Add in the 4 cups cornflakes cereal and mix until all of the cereal is coated.

Making the Wreaths

Working quickly, lightly grease your hands and take large spoonfuls of the cornflake mixture. Create a ball shape in your hand.
Press the ball onto a piece of parchment paper or wax paper. Stick a finger into the middle and press the cornflakes into a wreath shape.
Quickly sprinkle the wreath with the white sprinkles and press a bow onto the top. Do this 12-14 times. Set the wreaths aside on the parchment paper (or wax paper) and allow them to cool completely before storing in a container.

Notes

Lightly grease your fingers this will prevent a sticky mess on your hands.
