Description

Delight in these irresistible Oreo Rice Krispie Treats, combining crunchy Rice Krispies, melted marshmallows, and crushed Oreos for a sweet, chewy, and crunchy dessert perfect for any occasion. This easy-to-make no-bake treat is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth with every bite.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 12 Oreos
  • 12 oz (6 cups) mini marshmallows
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 5 cups Rice Krispies cereal

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Baking Dish: Line an 8 x 8-inch baking dish with wax paper or parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides for easy removal later. Grease the exposed sides of the dish to prevent sticking.
  2. Crush Oreos: Place the 12 Oreos in a mixing bowl and use a potato masher or similar tool to crush them into smaller pieces. Set aside for incorporation later.
  3. Melt Marshmallow Mixture: In a large pot with high sides, melt the mini marshmallows, unsalted butter, salt, and vanilla extract over medium-low heat. Stir frequently with a rubber spatula until the mixture becomes smooth and fully melted.
  4. Combine Cereal: Remove the pot from heat and add the Rice Krispies cereal. Stir thoroughly, ensuring every piece is coated evenly with the marshmallow mixture.
  5. Add Crushed Oreos: Fold half of the crushed Oreo pieces evenly into the Rice Krispies mixture, then add the remaining Oreos and gently mix to distribute throughout.
  6. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the combined mixture into the prepared baking dish. Lightly wet your hands to prevent sticking and press the mixture gently but firmly into the dish for an even layer.
  7. Cool and Set: Let the treats sit at room temperature on the counter for 1 to 3 hours to cool and harden completely.
  8. Slice and Serve: Once set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the block out of the dish. Cut into 9 squares and serve.

Notes

  • For easier cutting, wet the knife with water to prevent sticking.
  • Store treats in an airtight container to keep them fresh for up to 3 days.
  • For a fun variation, try adding mini chocolate chips or a drizzle of melted chocolate on top.
  • Use gluten-free Oreos and Rice Krispies if you require a gluten-free dessert.
