Oreo Rice Krispies


With two teenagers visiting for the summer I've had two struggles. Keeping them entertained and feeding them. It is unreal how expensive it is to feed a six person household! Today, we planned to have meatloaf, and when I realized we were completely out of eggs (because sometimes you have to eat breakfast) I made a mad dash to the store. In the process, I picked up the ingredients for these little treats because the kids love to bake!

Delicious is the ONLY word I would use to describe these. Cookies and cream meets rice krispies might just be the best combo around. Plus, what an easy snack for kids to help with.


Ingredients:
6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
20(ish) Oreo cookies, roughly chopped
1 package mini marshmallows
3 tbsp salted butter


Start buy measuring out the cereal into a large bowl. Chop the Oreos and mix place on top of the cereal and set aside. (For the Oreos, you could crush them in a large ziplock bag or chop them coarsely with a knife, which is what I did.) Melt the butter and marshmallows together until smooth. Mix the dry ingredients with the marshmallow and fold until all the cereal mixture is coated. Press firmly into a greased pan. Cut once everything has cooled. Enjoy!
