For another fun and festive holiday treat, try these Cornflake Christmas Wreaths.

Besides shaping these macaroons into wreath shapes, which is a little tricky, these Wreath Macaroons are so easy to make. The only equipment needed is a mixing bowl and something to stir with. This recipe is from Southern Living Magazine which is full of holiday inspiration.

Ingredients

Sweetened Shredded Coconut
Egg Whites– I love this gadget for easily separating egg whites.
Granulated Sugar
Vanilla Extract
Candied Cherries– for decorating.

How To Make

To make them, mix together a bag of sweetened shredded coconut, 2 large egg whites, sugar, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Drop the mixture by heaping tablespoonfuls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (a must!). Make a hole in the middle of each mound with the end of a wooden spoon and use your fingers to pinch the mixture into a wreath shape.
