Love Oreos? Try cookies & creme rice krispies
It’s June. We are already 6 months into the year. Where does time go these days? Next thing you know, we’ll be seeing snow on the ground, earlier darkness, and chasing natural light again. June means summer to me and summer means ice cream. But I didn’t bring you an ice cream treat today, I brought you a flavor of ice cream that my taste buds are having a party over. Cookies and creme. Truth be told, I have a love/hate relationship with cookies and creme. I think I ate it too much as a kid so in my teen years I’d only get mint chocolate chip ice cream, and now I’ve fallen in love again with cookies and creme.
Chick-Fil-A cookies and creme milkshake: SO bad for you but oh so good it hurts. I’m pretty sure that’s where my love affair with cookies and creme began again. Jason was shocked when we first started dating that I’ve never had one from Chick-Fil-A. We went and each got one (yeah, we should’ve just split one but whatever, that was pre-diet days……which I guess explains why I’m on a diet now..hrmph) and woah nelly, the heavens opened up and I was practically in heaven over these milkshakes. And then being the crazy person that I am, I looked up the caloric intake of such an orgasmic milkshake and nearly spit out my mouthful all in Jason’s new car (at that time).
Those darn addictive milkshakes. I have to give up on them. Which, as of now, I have because it’s just so disgusting downing the amount of saturated fat and sugar.
Although I’ve ended my relationship with Chick-Fil-A cookies and creme milkshake, my love affair with cookies and creme has not ended, sorry but I’m not sorry, Jason. If I didn’t have this affair, these yummy treats would not have been in our kitchen :)
These were SO good. Definitely a great way to get my cookies and creme fix. The marshmallows could be the “whipped cream” part of the milkshake, if you will. This is a great twist on rice krispies if you’re tired of the regular flavor. Go make some!
Have a great weekend, y’all! :)
Cookies & Creme Rice Krispies
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 bag of large marshmallows
- 5 cups (135 g) rice cereal
- 3 tablespoon (42 g) unsalted butter
- 16-18 Oreos, crushed
Instructions
- Grease a 8×8″ pan and set aside.
- In a large ziploc bag, place the Oreos in, seal the bag, and with a rolling pin, crush the Oreos until they’re smaller pieces. Set aside.
- In a large pot, melt 3 tbsp. (42g) butter. Once butter has melted, add in the bag of marshmallows and stir until all the marshmallows have melted then remove from heat. Gently fold in the rice cereal then fold in the Oreo's.
- Pour all the contents into the prepared pan and spread out evenly. To make this faster/easier, I usually spray my hands with some cooking spray and use my hands to press down on the mixture until it’s evenly spread out.
- Let cool completely before cutting into squares.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
I am a Rice Krispie Treat purist but I could get behind a cookies & cream one! These look so amazing!
What an awesome creation, Julie! I’ve made many different kinds of rice krispies for Jason but this might be the one that tops it all! He’s going to be so happy when I make this for him.
OMG all I can say is WOW this is the ultimate rice crispies recipe for sure!
These look great! Can’t wait to try this out!
*falling out of my chair* Carlton gets me EVERY TIME. So does cookies-n-cream. At least it’s a little healthier if it’s homemade, right? Love it!
yum, these sound just fantastic. would you believe that i’ve still never been to a Chick-Fil-A in my entire life? it’s shameful, i know, especially considering we have them all over Nashville!
Love your Friday happy dances! Oh and the rice kris pie treats aren’t so bad either ;)
You had me at Oreo.
omg his poor car!!! lol I’m dying over that one. I’d eat a whole tray of this. Truthfully, we’d probably fight over it here.
i’ll take two dozen, please and thank you :) these look SO good!
