Ingredients
- 1½ quarts vanilla ice cream
- 3 cups cornflakes
- ½ cup butter
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 8 oz. Cool Whip
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Pull out 1½ quarts vanilla ice cream and let soften
- Crush 3 cups cornflakes into small crumbs.
- In a large skillet, melt ½ cup butter over medium heat. Add ½ cup granulated sugar.
- Turn the heat up to medium-high and cook and stir until it bubbles and the sugar is incorporated into the butter.
- Stir in cornflake crumbs and cook for another 3-5 minutes. You want the corn flakes to toast and caramelize a bit. Spoon about half (or slightly more than half) of the corn flakes into the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch pan and press to form a crust
- Mix together the softened ice cream, 8 oz. Cool Whip and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Spread ice cream mixture over corn flake crust
- Sprinkle remaining corn flakes over the ice cream.
- Cover and freeze for a minimum of two hours.
- Slice and serve drizzled with honey or chocolate sauce.
Notes
These bars are great on their own. They are also wonderful drizzled with honey or chocolate sauce. A dollop of whipped cream and a cherry makes them extra special.
