Indulgent cinnamon cereal cake for guilt-free breakfast cravings, featuring a creamy vanilla twist.
Ingredients:
  • 1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ Butter Recipe Yellow Cake Mix
  • Water, butter and eggs called for on cake mix box
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup coarsely crushed Cinnamon Toast Crunch™ cereal
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 box (6-serving size) vanilla instant pudding and pie filling mix
  • 3 cups cold milk
  • 1 container (8 oz) frozen whipped topping, thawed
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and generously coat a 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray.
  • Prepare and bake the cake according to the box instructions, incorporating water, butter, eggs, cinnamon, and vanilla for extra flavor.
  • As the cake bakes, combine the ingredients for the Cereal Crumble in a small bowl. Spread the mixture in an ungreased shallow baking pan and set it aside.
  • Take the cake out of the oven and allow it to cool on a rack for 5 minutes. Bake the cereal crumble in the oven at 350°F for 7 minutes. Once baked, transfer it from the pan to paper towels or a flat paper bag.
  • After the cake has cooled for 5 minutes, use the handle of a wooden spoon (1/4 to 1/2 inch in diameter) to poke holes nearly to the bottom of the cake every half inch. Remember to wipe the spoon handle occasionally to prevent sticking.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the Filling ingredients until thickened. Pour the mixture over the cake and spread it evenly, making sure to fill any holes. Leave some filling on top of the cake. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Evenly spread whipped topping over the cake and sprinkle crumble on top right before serving.
