Cinnamon Toast Crunch Marshmallow Treats

I stole this recipe for Cinnamon Toast Crunch Marshmallow Treats from domestically_speaking.com. These tasty treats get a lot of flavor from a cinnamon sweet cereal. Butter is melted in a pan, and then a pinch of salt and a bag of mini marshmallows are added in next. After the marshmallows are melted Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal is stirred in with more marshmallows. The mixture is spread into a greased pan. After sitting for 30 minutes, bars are cut before serving.

March 7th is National Cereal Day and making Cinnamon Toast Crunch Marshmallow Treats is a great way to celebrate (to see more Food Holidays see the National Food Holidays category or look at the Food Holiday Calendar).

“Like religion, politics and family planning, cereal is not a topic to be brought up in public. It’s too controversial.” – Erma Bombeck, Journalist (see more quotes in the Quotes tab)

Line a 9×9 baking with parchment paper and grease with butter or non-stick spray. Melt 5 tbsp butter over medium heat. Then add in ¼ tsp salt and a 10 oz bag of mini marshmallows.

Next cook and stir until the marshmallows are melted, but don’t let the mixture burn.

Then, remove the pan from heat and stir in 6 cups Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal.

Next stir in an additional of 1 ½ cups mini marshmallows.

Press the cereal mixture into the prepared pan. Then use a spoon sprayed with non-stick spray for easier spreading.

Let pan sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes to cool completely.

Slice and enjoy the sticky sweetness! Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
