Ingredients
Scale
- 10-ounce bag of mini marshmallows
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 4 cups crispy rice cereal
- 15–20 Oreos, crushed into chunks
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line a 9×13-inch pan with parchment paper and set it aside.
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the marshmallows and stir continuously until completely melted and smooth, about 5 minutes.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Add the crispy rice cereal to the melted marshmallow mixture and mix until well coated.
- Gently fold in the crushed Oreos, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan. Use parchment paper or a spatula to press the mixture evenly into the pan without pressing too hard.
- Let the treats cool for at least 30 minutes at room temperature before slicing into squares.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Notes
[‘Keep the heat low when melting marshmallows to avoid scorching.’, ‘Crush Oreos into chunks rather than crumbs for better texture.’, ‘Work quickly as the marshmallow mixture sets fast.’, ‘Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and make spreading easier.’, ‘Customize the crunch by adjusting the amount of crispy rice cereal.’]
