- White melting chocolate – Use white melting chocolate or a vanilla candy coating (almond bark)
What Are No Bake Cookies?
As the name reveals, these cookies don’t require an oven. But there are definitely different versions of no bake cookies and bars. Some versions are made with Rice Krispies, while other versions are traditionally made with quick oats or corn flakes. And there are still other varieties – like this no bake cookies with crushed cookies recipe.
Equipment You Will Need for White Chocolate Oreo Bars
For this recipe, you will need a medium pot for the stove, microwavable bowl for melting the white chocolate, and a food processor bowl for crushing combining all the ingredients. You will also need measuring cups, a spoon, baking sheet, and parchment paper (to prevent the Oreo squares from sticking to the baking sheets while they cool).
How to Make No Bake Oreo Marshmallow Bars
- Prepare an 8×8-inch pan by covering it with parchment paper with the ends coming up over the sides of the pan; set the pan aside.
- Place the Oreo cookies into a food processor and pulse until the cookies are ground into fine crumbs (it may be best to do this step in batches).
- Pour the cookies crumbs into a large mixing bowl; set aside.
- Heat a large pot over medium heat. Melt the butter in the pot, then add the marshmallows and stir constantly until melted.
- Pour the melted marshmallow mixture into the bowl with the cookie crumbs. Stir well to combine.
- Press the Oreo and marshmallow mixture into the prepared pan. Set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
- Lift the whole sheet of Oreo bars out of the pan by grabbing the parchment paper and place on a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to cut 9 square bars.
- Melt the white melting chocolate according to package directions. Use a spoon, fork, or piping bag to drizzle the melted white chocolate over the Oreo bars in a decorative pattern.
- Set the Oreo bars aside for the white chocolate to harden, about 20-30 minutes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use off-brand cookies for Oreo cookie bars?
Sure, you can. There are some off-brand Oreo cookies that taste very similar to the real thing. Some people may be staunch Oreo supporters. This is just a personal choice.
How can I make my cookies cool quicker?
The optimal approach for solidifying your no-bake cookies is to air-dry or refrigerate them briefly. In case of urgency, you may refrigerate the baking sheets for a couple of minutes. But, you must be cautious not to leave them in for an extended period, as it may cause your cookies to become excessively hard.
Expert Tips and Tricks for White Chocolate Oreo Bars
- These Oreo cookie bars should be stored in an airtight food storage container. They will last at least three days, but they do become more dense the longer they’re kept. They do not freeze well.
- The white chocolate is optional, but without it the bars kind of look like dirt. Although they still taste amazing, the white chocolate gives much to the appearance!
- The white chocolate should be melting chocolate because it melts better than white chocolate chips and bars.
