Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted (3/4 of one stick)
  • 32 cookies Oreo cookies ground into fine crumbs
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows
  • 15 caramels unwrapped and quartered (total of 60 small pieces)
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure even baking of the bars.
  • Line a 9x9 inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang on the sides for easy removal later.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the ground Oreo cookies and melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to form an even layer.
  • Bake the Oreo base in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes to set the crust and enhance flavor.
  • Remove the pan from the oven. Sprinkle mini marshmallows evenly over the baked Oreo base, then scatter the quartered caramels on top of the marshmallows.
  • Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden and puffy and the caramels are melted.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and immediately sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips over the hot marshmallows and caramels. Let sit for a minute to soften, then use a spatula to spread the melted chocolate evenly over the top.
  • Allow the bars to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes. For best results, refrigerate for at least an hour to set properly.
  • Lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang, cut into squares, and serve.

Notes

  • Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.

  • Try using other chocolate sandwich cookies or graham crackers for a different base flavor.
  • Add chopped nuts such as pecans or walnuts on top before baking for extra crunch.
