Cornflake Crunch Marshmallow Bars

Step 1

Preheat oven to 275°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl mix together the crushed cornflakes, powdered milk, granulated sugar, and salt.

Step 3

Pour in the melted butter, tossing to combine, forming small clusters.

Step 4

Spread evenly onto a baking sheet and cook until the cereal is slightly toasted, about 15 to 20 minutes.

Step 5

Cool completely and then break up into large clusters.

Step 6

Preheat oven to 350°F, line a 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper and grease with butter, and set aside.

Step 7

In a large bowl, whisk flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda, set aside.

Step 8

With a mixer cream butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes on medium speed.

Step 9

Add egg and vanilla and continue to beat for 8 minutes. This will aerate the batter.
