You put WHAT on your ice cream?

Let's just cut through the suspense - we put Cheerios on our ice cream the other night. 

 Two bowls of ice cream topped with Apple Cinnamon Cheerios. 

So my wife and I have a secret life - OK it's probably not that much of a secret or a life, but still. Very often after the boys go to bed, she and I have a bowl of ice cream or some other treat that we have in the house. We don't normally eat in front of the boys, because the 1-year old is still too small to really have treats at all, and the 6-year old will have some but certainly not as much as we serve ourselves. Kind of our treat to ourselves for making it through the day.

Recently we purchased - at the insistence of our oldest boy - Apple Cinnamon Cheerios. When we tried them we were blown away. These were not the Apple Cinnamon Cheerios we grew up with. Gone were the little crunchy bits and the weak flavor. This cereal was bursting with apple and cinnamon flavor, and there were no more little crunchy bits, but they were not missed.

So super tasty!

I don't think this is an isolated phenomenon. There may be many breakfast cereals that - with the proper pairing, can turn into a super-tasty dessert. Our pairing was a salted caramel ice cream with these tasty Cheerios. What are some combinations that you think would taste nice together? Perhaps some rainbow sherbet with Fruit Loops? Cookie dough ice cream with Cocoa Puffs? Let me know in the comments section!
