Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted butter
10 cups mini marshmallows (divided into 8 cups and 2 cups)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/2 tsp sea salt
8 cups Rice Krispies cereal
22 Oreo cookies, coarsely chopped
Instructions
Line a 9×13 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
Measure out 10 cups of mini marshmallows and set aside 2 cups for the final mixing stage.
Melt the butter and 8 cups of marshmallows in a large saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until smooth.
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
Add the 8 cups of Rice Krispies cereal to the marshmallow mixture and stir until evenly coated.
Fold in the 22 chopped Oreo cookies and the remaining 2 cups of reserved mini marshmallows.
Press the mixture firmly into the prepared baking dish.
Allow the treats to set at room temperature for at least 1 hour before cutting into squares.
Notes
Ensure you use fresh cereal for the best crunch. Adding the reserved marshmallows at the end provides little pockets of extra chewiness. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
