Ingredients

  • 6 cups Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal
  • 7 tablespoons salted butter
  • 7 cups mini marshmallows divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Line a 9x9 inch pan with foil or parchment paper and grease with butter or nonstick cooking spray.
  • Bring a large pot or stock pot to medium heat and add butter and melt.
  • Reduce the heat to low heat and add 6 cups of marshmallows. Stir until melted, then add vanilla extract, and cinnamon.
  • Remove the pot from heat and stir in the cereal until the marshmallow mixture completely coats the cereal. Stir in the remaining 1 cup of marshmallows until evenly distributed.
  • Add the mixture to the prepared 9x9 inch pan and gently press the mixture into the pan. Make sure you don't press too hard otherwise your treats will be too dense and hard. Let rest for 30-60minutes and slice into squares. Enjoy!

Notes

To-store on counter: place leftovers in an airtight container or cover a plate tightly with plastic wrap. They will store for up to 4-5 days without tasting stale. You can also store in a large ziplock bag. 
To-store in fridge: these treats will last a bit longer if you store them in the refrigerator. They will store well for up to 1 week. Be sure to let sit out for at least 30 minutes because they will become hard.
