Oreo Chocolatey Rice Krispies

I made these scrumptious snacks for my boyfriend and I to take along on our hike on Mount Lady Macdonald in Canmore.  The hike was gorgeous and these were easy to take along and snack on - more like eat all at once - when we got to the top.











 Oreo Chocolatey Rice Krispies      Recipe adapted from Annie's Eats

Ingredients:
1/4 cup white chocolate chips
1/4 cup milk chocolate chips
4 tbsp. unsalted butter
10 oz. marshmallows (i used a bag of jet puffed)
1 tbsp. vanilla extract
6 cups Rice Krispies
20 Oreo cookies, coarsely chopped
4-6 oz. chocolate, a mix of white and milk
10 chopped Oreos, for topping

Directions:
Place chocolate chips in a small microwave safe bowl.  Microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until completely melted.  Set aside.  Grease a 9×13″ pan.
Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.  Add the marshmallows and stir until melted and well combined.  Turn off heat and stir in the melted chocolate and the vanilla extract.  Gently stir in the Rice Krispies and coarsely chopped Oreos, and mix to coat evenly.  Press the mixture into the prepared pan, leveling the top.   Allow to cool completely.

Once cooled, cut into squares.  Melt the 4-6 oz chocolate in the microwave and coat the rice krispies.  Scatter the oreo pieces over the melted chocolate, pressing firmly to ensure they're in place. Cut into squares and store in an airtight container.   I recommend heating these in the microwave for 15 secs before eating, so yummy!
