In a large saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Add the mini marshmallows to the saucepan and stir constantly until fully melted and smooth.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the green food coloring and vanilla extract until the mixture is evenly colored.
Gently fold the cornflakes cereal into the marshmallow mixture, ensuring all the cereal is fully coated.
Spray your hands or two large spoons with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Working quickly, scoop about a 1/4 cup of the cereal mixture and shape it into a wreath by forming a circle with a hole in the center. Place each wreath on a sheet of parchment paper.
While the wreaths are still sticky, press a few red candies onto each to resemble holly berries.
Let the wreaths set at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes or until firm.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
