Cinnamon Kix

These little treats are so fun to munch. This recipe can be doubled and made with one bag corn puffs. They are so addictive that way, but don't read the nutritional info of those corn puffs. I wanted a better alternative for when we are craving them, and subbed Kix cereal and added cinnamon oil. Try other flavoring oils or extracts for a different treat.

Cinnamon Kix

1 box Kix cereal
½ c. sugar

Pour cinnamon mix over cereal and stir to coat. Transfer to greased cookie sheet. Bake at 250 stirring every 10 min for 45 min. spread on wax paper to cool.
