While the ice cream is churning, combine the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Stir to melt the sugar and the butter together. Let it cook for a few minutes, until a thick caramel-like sauce has formed.
Add 1½ cups of cereal to the pan and stir to coat well. Transfer the coated cereal to a sheet of parchment. Working quickly with two forks, separate the pieces and spread them out across the parchment to cool.
When the ice cream is finished churning, scoop it into a freezer-safe container. Sprinkling cinnamon toast pieces throughout the ice cream as you fill the container. Save any remaining pieces for serving.
