Sometimes change is GOOD!!

So, I have gone with a strict policy of if I have a good recipe that is tried and true that I will not try to "improve" on it with another recipe because I am usually disappointed - kind of the "If it's not broke - don't fix it" mentality but I have to say that today I broke that rule and I am SOOOO glad I did.  I have been told my cinnamon toast is pretty awesome. So when I saw this post from the Pioneer Woman's cinnamon toast I thought I would give it a try and OH MY WORD!!! It was wonderful.  It even got thumbs up from the boyfriend and his 17 year old son!  This one is a keeper and I will never make cinnamon toast any other way!  FRIENDS - TRY IT!!!! I bet you will love it too!!!


I halved this recipe because I didn't need 8 slices of toast.  I still ended up using the same amount of cinnamon and vanilla!

Ingredients

8 slices Bread (whole Wheat Is Great!)
1 stick Salted Butter, Softened
½ cup Sugar (more To Taste)
teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract (more To Taste)
¼ teaspoons Ground Nutmeg (optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Smush softened butter with a fork. Dump in sugar, cinnamon, vanilla and nutmeg, if using. Stir to completely combine.
Spread on slices of bread, completely covering the surface all the way to the edges.
Place toast on a cookie sheet. Place cookies sheet into the oven and bake for 10 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil until golden brown and bubbling. Watch so it won’t burn!
Remove from oven and cut slices into halves diagonally.
