Ingredients
- 3 cups Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional: extra Cinnamon Toast Crunch for topping
Instructions
- Begin by preparing an 8×8 inch baking dish by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it lightly. This will ensure that your bars come out easily once they’re set.
- In a large saucepan, combine the butter, peanut butter, and marshmallows over medium heat. Stir continuously until everything is melted and smooth.
- Once melted, remove the saucepan from the heat and quickly add in the vanilla extract and powdered sugar. Stir until everything is well combined and smooth.
- Gently fold in the Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal until it’s evenly coated with the mixture. Be careful not to crush the cereal too much!
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, pressing it down firmly and evenly. If desired, sprinkle additional Cinnamon Toast Crunch on top for extra crunch.
- Let the bars cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until they are set. For quicker cooling, place them in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes.
- Once set, lift the bars out of the baking dish using the parchment paper. Cut them into squares and enjoy!
