Nightmare Before Christmas Wreath Cookies
You’ll need:
-Red hots
-Dried mango
-Black food gel dye
-Dried coconut
-Fruit roll up

Ingredients:
-6 cups corn flakes cereal
-1 package (approximately 40) marshmallows
-2 Tablespoons butter
-Green food gel dye

Prep a baking sheet with a silpat or wax paper.

In a large pan melt the butter and marshmallows over medium heat. Add the green food gel dye and stir together until completely melted. Remove from the heat.

Stir in the corn flakes until coated, then spoon onto the prepped baking sheet, forming 4-inch wreath shapes.

Use clean kitchen shears to cut the dried mango into almond shapes for the eyes, then use a toothpick to add a black pupil for the center of the eyes.

Cut coconut into pointed strips for the teeth and add red hots to decorate.

Use the kitchen shears again to cut the fruit roll up into a bow shape and place onto the bottom of each wreath.

Serve immediately.
