Ingredients
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
18 ounces mini marshmallows, divided
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
8 cups crispy rice cereal
2 1/3 cups Oreo cookies, coarsely chopped
1 1/4 cups white chocolate chips, divided
1/4 teaspoon vegetable oil
Instructions
Grease a 9×9-inch baking pan with nonstick spray or line with parchment paper.
Melt the butter in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat.
Stir in 16 ounces of mini marshmallows until completely smooth and melted.
Remove the pot from heat and stir in vanilla extract and salt.
Fold in the crispy rice cereal and chopped Oreos until well coated.
Stir in the remaining 2 ounces of mini marshmallows and 1/4 cup of white chocolate chips.
Press the mixture firmly into the prepared baking pan.
Melt the remaining 1 cup of white chocolate chips with 1/4 teaspoon of vegetable oil in the microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth.
Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the top of the treats.
Allow to cool completely before cutting into 16 squares.
Notes
Use high-quality marshmallows for the best melt. For thinner treats, use a 9×13-inch pan. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Use stale cereal to avoid excess moisture, though fresh cereal provides the best crunch.
