Oreo Marshmallow Squares Recipes

MARSHMALLOW OREO SQUARES

Steps:

• Coarsely chop 8 cookies; set aside. Finely crush remaining 26 cookies; mix with margarine. Press mixture on bottom of greased 9x9x2-inch baking dish.
• Spread marshmallow cream over crust to within 1/2 inch of edge. Sprinkle chips, nuts, and chopped cookies over marshmallow layer, pressing lightly.
• Bake at 350 for 18-20 minutes. Cool completely before cutting.
• TO make a lighter version, use reduced-fat or sugar-free Oreo-type cookies, reduced-fat margarine, and 1/4 cup miniature chocolate chips.

OREO MARSHMALLOW SQUARES

Steps:

• Spray a 9-by-12-inch pan with cooking spray, then place a layer of parchment paper cut to size on top. Spray the top of the parchment so it is coated lightly.
• Pour 1/2 cup cold water in a small microwave-safe bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder on top and stir well. Let stand for at least 3 minutes to allow the gelatin to absorb the water.
• Combine the granulated sugar, corn syrup, honey and 1/3 cup water in a small saucepan and heat to 250 degrees F. The syrup will thicken and be boiling. Pour the syrup into the bowl of a stand mixer and let stand to cool down to 212 degrees F; this happens fairly quickly.
• Microwave the gelatin mixture for 30 seconds to a minute or until the gelatin is completely melted but not over 135 degrees F.
• Add the melted gelatin mixture to the cooked syrup. Place the bowl on the mixer with a whip attachment and whip on high, stopping after about 7 minutes to add the vanilla, until the mixture gets white and fluffy, 8 to 10 minutes. Fold in 1 1/2 cups of the crushed Oreos®. Scrape the mixture out into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Top with the remaining 2 cups of crushed Oreos®. Set aside to allow the marshmallows to set up, a couple of hours.
• Cut the marshmallows and toss in a 50/50 cornstarch-confectioners' sugar mixture to prevent them from sticking back together. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

MARSHMALLOW OREO TREATS

Steps:

• Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
• Add Oreos to a large ziploc bag and use a rolling pin to crush them, set aside.
• In a large pot, melt the butter and 8 cups of the marshmallows over low heat until smooth.
• Remove from heat and add the crushed Oreos and the marshmallows to the pot and stir until evenly coated.
• Transfer the mixture to the baking dish and use greased hands or another sheet of parchment paper to gently press the mixture into the pan. Don't pretty too hard or the treats will be tough.
• Allow them to sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour before slicing.
