Milk & Cookies Rice Krispie Treats
Servings 12
Ingredients
- 1 cup of salted butter
- 20 oz of mini marshmallows you can use the larger ones, but the mini ones melt easier!
- 8 cups of Rice Krispies
- 3 cups of Cookie Crisp cereal
- 2 tsp of vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups of Chips Ahoy Cookies roughly chopped
**For the topping:**
- 4 oz of white chocolate
- 1 cup of Chips Ahoy Cookies roughly chopped
Instructions
- Start by lining a 9×13 pan with parchment paper and lightly misting it with nonstick cooking spray. Set it aside.
- In a large pot, melt the butter. Keep stirring until the butter just begins to brown. Watch for it to foam up twice and then give off a nutty aroma. Remove it from heat immediately to prevent burning. Stir in the two teaspoons of vanilla extract, but be careful as the hot mixture will bubble up and steam.
- Add in half of your marshmallows and mix until almost completely melted before adding the rest. Stir until all the marshmallows are mostly melted. Then, add in the Rice Krispies, 2 cups at a time, and lightly stir until combined.
- Continue adding the Rice Krispies and Cookie Crisp cereal until everything is evenly combined. Finally, mix in the chopped Chips Ahoy Cookies until just combined. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and gently press it down. Wet your hands lightly to prevent sticking. Allow it to set and cool for 30 minutes.
**For the topping:**
- Place the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Microwave for 20 seconds, stir, and repeat until completely melted. Let it sit for 3 minutes to cool to room temperature.
- Drizzle half of the white chocolate onto the treats using a spoon, then top with chopped cookies. Drizzle the remaining white chocolate on top to seal the cookies to the treats. Slice and enjoy!
