Cornflake Wreaths – it’s a Thing!

One treat we made growing up that brings back all the nostalgia are today’s Christmas Wreath Cookies. They are made using cornflakes and cinnamon candies and come together in under 20 minutes. These vintage no bake cookies are not only adorable, but they’re great for cookie plates, gifting and parties. You can even decorate them with licorice strings and snow-white frosting. Add them to your next Christmas get together along with our Christmas Tree Brownies, Christmas Cookies and Christmas Chex Mix!
