Ingredients
- ½ cups Butter
- 1 cup Sugar
- 3 cups Crushed Corn Flakes

- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- Hot Fudge, Honey, Or Caramel, To Serve (optional)
Preparation
Melt butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once butter is melted, stir in sugar and crushed corn flakes. Cook for about 3 minutes, stirring constantly so the sugar does not burn.
Spread half of the sugared corn flake mixture into the bottom of a 9×13 inch pan.
In a large bowl, beat softened ice cream, Cool Whip, and cinnamon. Pour ice cream mixture on top of corn flakes in 9×13 inch pan. Sprinkle with the remaining corn flakes and then freeze until set.
When ready to serve, set the pan out of freezer for a few minutes in order to cut into individual pieces. Top dessert with hot fudge, honey, or caramel.
