So if you know me in any way you know that I’m seriously obsessed with Oreos. It’s NEVER possible for me to have just one. It’s usually a whole row. I love them the traditional way; twisted, a bite of the cream filling, put back together, and then dunked in milk. But I love mixing them into some of my favorite recipes even more! I’ve tried slutty brownies {is there anything more sinful and incredible?}, Fluff cupcakes filled with Oreos {may be sharing this on the blog soon!}, Oreos mixed into brownies and chocolate, and red velvet cake brownies with cookies and cream frosting + chocolate ganache {find recipe here}.
This past week we had a cook out at work and everyone was suppose to bring a side or dessert to contribute. Obviously I chose to bring a dessert 😉 and I wanted to try something a little new. I knew the event was outside and it’d be crazy warm {it’s now in the 80s here} so I needed something that wouldn’t melt immediately. I decided to mix two childhood classics – rice krispie treats and Oreos. The combo is incredible!! Add a little browned butter and chocolate drizzle for a little “grown-up” touch. Your inner child and current grown up self will thank you for giving these treats a try!
