Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (½ stick)
- 3½ cups mini marshmallows
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 5 cups Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal divided
Instructions
- Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large pot set over low heat, melt the butter.
- Add in the marshmallows and allow them to melt, stirring constantly until they are smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla, cinnamon, and 4 cups of cereal.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and spread it out to an even layer. Top with the remaining cup of cereal and press the bars down to pack them tightly-- be careful, they’re hot! If the mixture is sticking to your spatula, place another sheet of parchment paper on top and then press down on the bars through the parchment paper.
- Set them aside to cool to room temperature until set, about 1 hour.
- Slice and serve.
