Take rice krispie treats to the next level with this incredible Oreo version! Just 3 ingredients and a microwave are all you need for these irresistible no-bake treats.

NO-BAKE PERFECTION

Looking for an easy treat that will disappear in minutes? These bars combine the gooey goodness of marshmallow treats with everyone’s favorite sandwich cookies. Best of all? No oven required!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

Can I use generic sandwich cookies?

Yes! While Oreos are classic, any cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookie works great.

Why line the pan with foil/parchment?

This makes removing and cutting the bars much easier, plus ensures nothing sticks to your pan.

How long do these keep?

Stored in an airtight container, they’ll stay fresh for 3-4 days – if they last that long!

TIPS FOR SUCCESS:

Don’t overheat marshmallows – just until puffy
Let butter and marshmallows cool slightly before adding cookies
Press mixture gently into pan – too firm makes them dense
Let set completely before cutting
Use fresh marshmallows for best results
Spray your spatula with cooking spray to prevent sticking
