Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons salted butter add 1/4 teaspoon salt if using unsalted
- 10.5 oz mini marshmallows fresh works best
- 5 cups Oreo Puffs cereal
Instructions
- Melt butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until melted and smooth. Remove from heat.
- Stir in Oreo Puffs cereal until evenly coated.
- Press mixture evenly into a greased or parchment-lined 8-inch pan. Use a buttered spatula or wax paper to press it down gently. Let cool.
- Cut into 8 bars and serve.
- Microwave method: Place butter and marshmallows in a large microwave-safe bowl. Heat on HIGH for 3 minutes, stirring after 2 minutes. Stir until smooth. Mix in cereal, press into the pan, and let cool before cutting.
Notes
- Fresh marshmallows melt more smoothly and give the best texture.
- Melt over low heat to keep the bars chewy instead of hard.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days.
- To freeze, layer bars with wax paper in a container and freeze for up to 6 weeks. Thaw at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving.
