Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 6 Tablespoons (80 g) butter, regular or dairy free
- 7 cups (315 g) mini marshmallows
- 1 teaspoon real vanilla extract
- 5 cups (140 g) Rice Krispies cereal
- 16 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped or crushed, plus more for topping if desired
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Line a 9×9 inch baking pan with parchment paper or generously grease it with butter to prevent sticking.
- Chop Oreos: Roughly chop or crush the Oreo cookies and set them aside for later use.
- Melt Butter and Marshmallows: In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the mini marshmallows and stir continuously until completely melted and smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract to add flavor.
- Combine Ingredients: Remove the pot from heat and quickly add the Rice Krispies cereal and chopped Oreo cookies. Stir thoroughly but quickly until all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Press Mixture into Pan: Pour the mixture into your prepared pan. Sprinkle additional crushed Oreo pieces on top if desired. Use a greased spatula or your hands to gently press the mixture down evenly to form a compact layer.
- Chill and Slice: Allow the treats to firm up at room temperature for 10-20 minutes. Once set, slice into bars and enjoy!
Notes
- Use dairy-free butter and marshmallows to make this recipe vegan-friendly.
- For extra crunch, add chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts along with the Oreos.
- Store treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Press the mixture firmly to ensure treats hold together well.
