How to make Cookies and Cream Rice Krispies Treats

The method of cooking these treats is similar to classic rice krispie treats. All you need to do is add some delicious Oreo cookies.

To get started, prepare a 13×9 inch pan by lining it with parchment paper. Spray the paper with non-stick spray or butter.

Then, place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a large zipper bag and crush into small pieces. Set aside.

Crush Oreo cookies in bag

Melt butter over medium heat in a large pot.

When the butter is melted, add the bag of marshmallows and stir until smooth and melted.

Melt butter and marshmallows

Remove from heat and add the Rice Krispies cereal and cookies. Stir until well mixed.

TIP: if you use a buttered spatula it will make the process much easier.

Add cereal and cookies to melted marshmallows

Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and press mixture until the cereal mixture reaches the edges of the pan.

Place a sheet of wax paper on top to keep the mixture from sticking to your hands.

Press Cookies and Cream Rice Krispie mixture into prepared pan

Allow to cool for at least 2 hours, then slice into squares and enjoy!

Tips and Tricks

Eat your treats right out of the pan or top them with melted chocolate, more cookies and about a cup of mini marshmallows.

Store leftovers in an airtight container or on a plate covered with plastic wrap.

You can decorate this quick delicious treat for various holidays using colorful melting chocolate, icing or sprinkles.

They would be great decorated for Valentine’s Day, 4th of July, or Halloween!

I made two batches of this over the weekend and it was a big hit. However, one 9x13" pan was not big enough. It was also incredibly difficult to stir or distribute the marshmallow evenly due to how much this makes. The first batch I crammed into a 9x13" pan, but it was basically falling over the edges because the pan was so full. It was also difficult to cut. For the 2nd batch, I prepared two pans (9x13" and a 9x9") which was a bit better. Honestly, if you want one pan with what I would consider a normal thickness of rice krispie treats, I'd suggest cutting this recipe in half. It would also make it much less unwieldy to stir/pour and the marshmallow would be more evenly distributed. Otherwise, be prepared to put a lot of arm strength into it and have 2 pans ready to go.
