These No-Bake Cinnamon Spice Crunch Bars are a spicy sweet treat that warms you from the inside out during the cool weather season. They're a cross between fudge and cereal bars giving you a bite-size crunch when you're in the mood for a little something sweet.
No-Bake Cinnamon Spice Crunch Bars
This recipe begins with cinnamon and white chocolate chips melted with butter and condensed milk then mixed with marshmallows and simmered together to form the "glue." The simple addition of corn flakes adds the addicting "crunch." After the bars are set, cut into bite-size nuggets that are perfect for sharing with a friend.

Cinnamon baking chips are readily available year-round on the baking aisle at my local grocery store. It seems I gravitate to them most often when the weather turns cooler and the chill of Autumn is in the air. This cinnamon spice version is unapologetically rich so, I recommend cutting them into bite-size pieces much like you would homemade fudge. The sweet warm cinnamon and white chocolate form the perfect coating for the corn flakes and the gooey marshmallow "glue" is the crowning touch.

Hi Linda, that's a tough one. Perhaps experiment using all white chocolate chips and adding ground cinnamon to the melted mixture. Let me know if you try it and how it goes.
