Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter
- 8 cups miniature marshmallows
- 8 cups Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal
Instructions
- Prepare the pan: Butter a 9-inch square pan thoroughly to prevent sticking and set it aside while you prepare the bars.
- Toast the marshmallow mixture: In a large pot, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the miniature marshmallows and stir continuously until the marshmallows have completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Combine and press: Pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal in a large bowl. Stir well to coat every piece of cereal evenly. Then, transfer the coated cereal into the prepared pan, pressing it down firmly and evenly.
- Cool and cut: Allow the mixture to cool completely at room temperature so it sets properly. Once cooled, cut into bars and serve.
Notes
- Use butter generously to grease the pan to ensure bars release easily.
- Press the mixture firmly into the pan to help the bars hold together well.
- Miniature marshmallows melt faster and more evenly than large ones.
- For easier cutting, you can chill the bars for 15-30 minutes before slicing.
- Store leftover bars in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
