Steps:

Combine flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and 1/4 tsp salt.
Cut in margarine (like pie dough).
Make a well in the center of the dough.
Combine egg and 1/4 cup milk and pour them into the well.
Stir dough until moist.
Flour a flat surface and roll dough out to 1/8" thick.
Cut into 2" circles.
Bake at 375°F for 8-10 minutes.
Place on a rack to cool.
Once cooled, place 1/2 tsp jam on the bottom of one cookie.
Cover the jam with another cookie, ie cookie- jam- cookie.
In a small bowl stir together powdered sugar, vanilla and enough milk to make a glaze.
Glaze the top of one side of each double cookie and place 2-3 cinnamon candies into the glaze.
The candies are to be the holly berries.
Allow glaze to set.
Use a small clean paintbrush to paint several holly leaves and a stem on each cookie using green food coloring.

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup butter
30 large marshmallows
1-1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp. green food coloring
4 cups corn flakes cereal
Red Hots cinnamon candies, to garnish cookies

Steps:

1. Line 2 large baking sheets with wax paper; then set sheets aside.
2. In a large kettle or Dutch oven, add the butter. (I used a 5-quart Teflon coated Dutch oven.)
3. Melt the butter over low heat, then add the marshmallows; stirring constantly until the marshmallows have melted completely.
4. Remove kettle from heat, and add the vanilla extract and food coloring; stirring until the food coloring has blended well into the melted marshmallow mixture.
5. Drop mixture, one heaping tablespoon at a time onto the wax paper; spacing them at least 1-inch apart, then decorate each with 2-3 red hots cinnamon candies (quickly before they set).
6. Allow cookies to set on the wax paper for a few hours, so they will harden.
7. To store cookies, place them in an air tight container with a lid.
8. Note: When I display the cookies on a platter, I keep them intact on the wax paper. If giving cookies to others, I cut closely around the wax paper and cookies with a scissors. And when ready to eat the cookies, just peel off the wax paper.
