Coal Rice Krispy Treats
- 3 Tbsp butter
- 6 cups marshmallows
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 5 cups cocoa krispies**
- 1 cup crushed oreos
- black food coloring (I got this at Michaels with their weekly 40% off coupon, so it was only like a buck, whoo hoo, go get some!)
- Pour the rice krispies and oreos in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium high heat until melted. Turn the heat down to the lowest setting and add the marshmallows. Stir until the marshmallows are mostly all melted (this will take a few minutes--low and slow is key for perfect texture). Add in the vanilla and black food coloring (keep adding until you get the color you want) and finish melting.
- Once fully melted, take them off heat and pour over the rice krispies. Stir to combine until everything is black. Dump everything by spoonfuls onto a greased cookie sheet, so they look like funky coal shapes. Allow them to cool about 20 minutes. Enjoy!
