CHRISTMAS HOLLY TREATS
Someone brought this in to work and I thought I could copy it without a recipe, and did! Have never worked with marshmallows before, WOW (suggestions appreciated)!! Work fast, it's hot! Hint 1: Buy generic corn flakes at the $1 store! Hint 2: If the "berries" don't stick on the "holly", put the cold holly in the microwave for 20 sec. (on waxed paper) and then add the berries.

Tips:
- To achieve the perfect texture for your Holly Cookies, make sure to use fresh cornflakes. Stale cornflakes can result in a soggy or crumbly cookie.
- For a richer flavor, use real butter instead of margarine. The butter will add a delicious buttery taste to the cookies.
- If you don't have a rolling pin, you can use a wine bottle or a glass to roll out the dough. Just make sure to wrap the dough in plastic wrap first to prevent it from sticking.
- If you want your cookies to be extra crispy, bake them for a few minutes longer. Just keep an eye on them so they don't burn.
- Holly Cookies are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven. However, they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Holly Cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their crispy texture, gooey filling, and festive appearance, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet snack, give Holly Cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
