Cinnamon Raisin Cereal Treats Recipes

CINNAMON-RAISIN CEREAL TREATS

Steps:

• Grease the inside of the Bundt pan with some butter.
• Melt the butter in a large pot set over medium heat. Add the marshmallows and cinnamon and cook, stirring occasionally, until the marshmallows melt completely, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and a pinch of salt. Add the crispy rice cereal and wheat bran cereal and stir with a rubber spatula, making sure to scrape up the bottom, until the cereal is completely coated. Spoon the mixture into the prepared Bundt pan and pat down into an even layer (use the bottom of a measuring cup to help). Let sit at room temperature until firm, about 30 minutes.
• To serve, invert the Bundt pan onto a serving platter. Whisk the sugar with 1 1/4 teaspoons water in a small bowl until a smooth, thick and pourable. Drizzle the glaze over the dessert and let it harden, about 5 minutes. Cut into slices. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

CINNAMON CEREAL TREAT MUMMIES

Steps:

• Make the treats: Line a 9-inch square baking dish with foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two sides; lightly coat with cooking spray. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the marshmallows and salt and cook, stirring, until melted and smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in both cereals until coated, then press into the prepared pan. Let sit at room temperature until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the icing: Whisk 2 cups confectioners' sugar and the meringue powder in a large bowl until combined. Add 4 tablespoons water and beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until smooth and the consistency of a thick glaze. Add 1 to 2 more tablespoons water if the icing is too thick. Cover with a damp paper towel and plastic wrap and set aside until ready to use.
• Lift the treats out of the pan using the foil overhang, then cut into rectangles. Insert a lollipop stick into each. Brush an even layer of icing on the cereal treats with a pastry brush. Add the remaining 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar and the ground cinnamon to the remaining icing; beat with the mixer until thick and pipable. Transfer to a small resealable plastic bag and snip a corner. Pipe thin lines on the cereal treats to look like bandages and add 2 chocolate candies for eyes. Let set, about 15 minutes.
