Christmas wreath cookies

½ cup unsalted butter
10 ounces miniature marshmallows
1 tsp. green food coloring 
6 cups cornflakes or flake cereal of some kind
Crisco (for hands)
Cinnamon candies (for garnish)

Pour 6 cups of Cornflakes into a large bowl and set aside.
Melt a stick of butter in a saucepan, on low heat. When completely melted, add a bag of mini marshmallows. Stir until the marshmallows are completely melted.
Add a teaspoon of green food coloring. Stir until the mixture is completely green
Pour the green mixture on the cornflakes. Mix until the cornflakes are completely coated and green.
Put Crisco on your fingers.
Place a small handful of the cornflake mixture on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and form a wreath by making a hole in the center.
Place three cinnamon drops near each other on the wreath.
Repeat with the remaining cornflakes mixture. (Every once in awhile, put more Crisco on your fingers)
Let the wreaths rest on the baking sheet until they are set about 1 hour.
