Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • 6 cups Honeycomb Cereal Substitution: Try Chex cereal, Corn Pops, or pretzels for a different flavor and texture.
For the Caramel Coating
  • 1 cup Light Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter
  • 1/4 cup Light Corn Syrup Substitution: Honey or agave nectar can work as alternatives, though the taste will shift slightly.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
For the Sweet Coating
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 2 teaspoons Cinnamon

Equipment

  • medium saucepan
  • Large mixing bowl
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the Honeycomb cereal into a mixing bowl.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the light brown sugar, unsalted butter, and light corn syrup. Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously until it comes to a gentle boil. Allow it to boil for an additional minute until it thickens slightly.
  3. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in vanilla extract, followed by the baking soda. The mixture will bubble and froth.
  4. Pour the warm caramel over the Honeycomb cereal. Quickly toss and coat each piece evenly with a spatula.
  5. In a small bowl, combine granulated sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture over the caramel-coated cereal and toss until coated evenly.
  6. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet, spreading it out for even cooling. Let it cool completely for about 10–15 minutes before breaking into pieces.
