Making It Your Own (Swaps & Ideas)

Feel free to change up the cookies! You can use different flavors like peanut butter or mint Oreos for a twist. You can also swap out Krispie cereal for your favorite puffed snacks, such as Rice Chex or Cocoa Puffs, to make unique flavors.

How We Love to Serve It

These Oreo Krispies are perfect for parties, picnics, or movie night at home. I like to cut them into fun shapes for kids’ birthday parties or serve them as bite-sized snacks when hosting friends.

A Few Tips For Success

Make sure to stir the marshmallows constantly to avoid burning.
Using a greased spatula can help press the mixture without sticking.
Wait a bit longer than 30 minutes if you want firmer bars.

Saving Some For Later

Store any leftover bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, you can freeze the bars in a freezer-safe bag for up to three months. Just thaw them for a few hours before serving!

Your Questions, Answered

Can I make Oreo Krispies Vegan?

Absolutely! You can use vegan butter and substitute regular marshmallows with vegan marshmallows. These swaps will give you a deliciously chewy treat without the dairy.

How can I make Oreo Krispies gluten-free?

To make this recipe gluten-free, just use gluten-free cereal and double-check the Oreos, as some flavors contain gluten. Most classic Oreos are gluten-free, but it’s always good to confirm the packaging.

What can I add to Oreo Krispies for more flavor?

You can add extras like chocolate chips, crushed nuts, or even sprinkles to the mixture to boost flavor and texture. Just be mindful not to add too much or it might affect the sticky consistency of the bars.
