Are you a fan of Cinnamon Toast Crunch? Have you tried the new creamy cinnamon spread? It is EVERYTHING! Do you know what's even better? Pairing it with butter and making this easy cinnamon American buttercream.

I don't know about you, but we always keep a box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch at home. When I ran into this new product at Sam's Club, I knew I needed to buy it.


We got home, and the first thing we did was grab a spoon, LOL. I opened the jar and fell in love. This is the best decision Cinnamon Toast Crunch has made. As a baker and creative, I had to make buttercream with this cinnamon spread. It did not disappoint. It's super delicious, creamy, and easy to make.


You can find the Cinnamon Toast Crunch creamy cinnamon spread at your local Walmart or grocery store.
