Oreo Krispies are a classic treat kicked up with the addition of crushed Oreo cookies.
This is a basic recipe that my kids beg for. It’s ten minutes of effort. These Oreo Krispies don’t really seem homemade because of the help they get from the cereal and cookie aisles. But trust me, they taste infinitely better than the pre-made krispie treats you can buy in the store.
The basic krispie treat recipe needs a little extra oomph to really make them shine. I started with this recipe here and altered it a bit, including adding the crushed Oreo cookies. They are perfect. Extra thick with lots of marshmallow flavor.
Whip up a batch to take along on a picnic, pack in a kids’ lunchbox, or for a potluck dessert that is sure to please. Be sure and pin this recipe for reference!

Can this recipe be doubled? What size pan would I use?
Yes it can be doubled – use a 9×13 pan. They will be a little bit thicker but I personally like them like that 🙂
I made them for a bake sale, and everyone was raving about them! I sent multiple people your page for the recipe!
Megan you made my day 🙂 Thank you so much!
