→ Main Ingredients

01 - 5 tbsp butter
02 - 9 cups mini marshmallows, divided
03 - 5 cups Krispie cereal
04 - 16 Oreo cookies, crushed
05 - 1/2 tsp salt

# Instructions:

01 - In a large bowl, mix together the Krispie cereal, crushed Oreo cookies and one cup of mini marshmallows.
02 - In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter completely.
03 - Add the remaining 8 cups of mini marshmallows and salt to the melted butter. Stir continuously over medium heat until the marshmallows are completely melted and incorporated with the butter, creating a smooth mixture.
04 - Pour the melted butter and marshmallow mixture over the Krispie cereal mixture. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold everything together until the cereal and Oreos are evenly coated with the marshmallow mixture.
05 - Transfer the Oreo Krispie mixture into a 9-inch square pan. Using the spatula, press gently to flatten the top and create an even surface. Don't press too hard or the treats will become dense.
06 - Allow the Oreo Krispies to cool in the pan for about 30 minutes before slicing into squares and serving.

# Notes:

01 - For extra Oreo flavor, you can add a few additional crushed cookies on top of the treats right after pressing them into the pan.
02 - Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days for best freshness.
03 - Line your pan with parchment paper with overhanging edges for easier removal and cutting.
04 - If your treats are difficult to cut cleanly, lightly coat your knife with cooking spray.
