The magical combination of cereal, marshmallows and butter is nostalgic for many of us, but that doesn’t mean cereal treats should be reserved for the kids. And why stick to just one kind of crispy rice cereal, cut into boring old squares? Get creative in the cereal aisle and try out different shapes, molds and clusters. The possibilities for these timeless crowd-pleasers are limitless, and they’re still one of the easiest no-bake treats around.

The combination of bran flakes and rice cereal is extra-crunchy, and a Bundt pan gives it a new look. Drizzle the “cake” with a sweet glaze to finish, just like cinnamon buns.
