I made these cookies and cream rice krispy treats treats last Sunday for Devon and three of his 
football buddies that were coming over for dinner and to spend the night. To say that the boys liked the treats would be a huge understatement. They tore into them and had eaten all but four of the treats by the following morning. I know you’re thinking well, it was four boys but they didn’t start eating the treats until after 8:30pm and they also each had a piece (or two) of the ice cream cake I made! (That post soon to come.)
While I didn’t follow her recipe I did take inspiration from
Culinary Concoctions by Peabody. I initially was going to give it to you but instead I’m just going to tell you to check out your Rice Krispies box. The one thing I do differently when making rice krispy treats is I always increase the amount of marshmallows. Marshmallows are what makes the treats so yummy, be generous. For this batch I added another half a bag of marshmallows and about two rows of oreo cookies that I cut into quarters. I didn’t want a strong chocolaty flavor and I wanted to have oreo cookie chunks so I was careful not to add any of the oreo crumbs.
Do you like oreos? Do you like rice krispy treats? Then I recommend giving this a try and if you are super keen on chocolate, up the oreos, add the crumbs, and use Cocoa Krispies. For all of Sunday and Monday I was “d’man”! All three of the boys went home talking about my cookies and cream rice krispy treats! One of the boys even went so far as to hide one of the treats so he could bring it home for his parents to try. :)

This is absolute torture. I don't have rice krispies, marshmallows or Oreos in the house. Dang!
I love all that gooey stretchy 'shmallow. Yummers!
That is a hell of a sticky treat ;-P! Surely incredibly scrumptious!
Cheers,

Oh I miss eating rice krispies!
That is a super-sticky rice krispie treat! How'd you pat it down so nicely w/o being covered in marshmallow?
I agree with you on adding more marshmallows, and I also add a bit more butter...kind of like Paula Deen.
Those looks so good and easy...my boys would devour them too!!!
My kids would be all over these in a heartbeat!! Fantastic find!!
You are "da man!" LOL I think everyone should be making these very soon!

These look amazing! Love those cookie chunks!

GEEESH, I never, ever thought of adding Oreo's to Rice Krispy Treats! Those look phenomenal, Ingrid, and the phto of the stretchy marshmallow is the kind of photo that makes you want to make and devour a whole pan in one sitting!
BTW, I know you get a lot of these, and I've given you one before, but I have another for you, albeit different ;D You can grab it here..

Would you believe that I've never made Rice Krispy treats? I love them - even the ones "in the box." But this puts those to shame!

I love cookies and cream. Making a rice krispies treat version is genius!
Ohh my goodness..all things are right in the world with these treats!
What a great variation on rice krispie treats! Cookies and cream- love it!
I imagine that theses would not last as long in our house as that lemon blueberry cake did.
oooooooooh I am so trying this!!!! they look to die for :)
Best darn looking rice crispie treats I've ever seen. Holy moly.
Agreed about increasing the marshmallow quantity - always, always.
They look great Ingrid....My son would love these!
These look insane, in a good way!!!! lol
What a great idea! My kids would love these.
Oh my, those look truly sinful! I'm not a big rice krispie treat fan, but these would make me rethink that.
Ooh yummy! I might have to make these for the bake sale at work.
Twirl isn't over yet! You've got one more (and maybe a sequel!)
Those look beyond delicious!!!!
Thanks so much for the kind words about my cookbook :)
Its like a pizza with thick crust. Yummy!, marshmallow with oreo cookies thats amazing. I wonder what is the taste of that? Is it delicious? By the mere look of it. I can say it is.
I made cookies with Oreos and they were a hit. Can't wait to make a batch of these!
Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness.
I have to have one of these. NOW!
I LOVE how the marshmallows look! Stretchy, sticky perfectness! Just like pizza :P :P
I can so imagine what a treat these must have been! I want one!!!
INGRID STOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP! Can you be any more brilliant?! This would send kids running for your kitchen! But I'd totally beat them there.
Thanks for sharing your tip, I will DEFINITELY be increasing the marshmallows next time I make Rice Crispy Treats! (Crossing my fingers that they'll come out like yours!)
What a terrific idea! And I agree- the more marshmallow in these treats, the better.
Wowsers. Just wowsers. :)
Hello there - I am new to this blog, but I am likin' what I am seein'! Really, you had me with rice crisy treat :) Anyway - love the blog and plan on coming back - thanks!!!
I love the fact that one of the boys hid some to bring home for his parents. Though I suspect the mother would never hear the end of it, and will probably have to try replicating it soon :P
And you're definitely right; marshmallows make anything perfect!
these look SO good! I can't wait to try the.
I don't make rice krispy squares because of how addicted I am to them! These look so good. I know what you mean about the oreo crumbs.. I like big chunks!
These look amazing!! Gooey for sure!
Oh yum. What a fantastic idea, to add Oreos to these.
Hi Ingrid!
One of my favorite treats is Rice Krispies!! These look awesome. I've missed looking at your blog and keeping up to date with you. I noticed my feed reader went down sometime in August but I have been so horrible at just getting on the computer anymore. Hope you and your family are doing well. I'll bet you're excited for the Yankees about now! Do you think they'll get to the World Series? Maybe it'll be a Yankees-Colorado game! :)
Have a great week!
I'm salivating. Oh wow. Bookmarking. Now.
Ooh, that looks so gooey, I feel sticky just looking at it! I love rice krispies AND oreo! :D Thanks for sharing the recipe.
