Cookies and CRIME Chewy No-Bake Cookies

I usually hate autocorrect. We've all read the ridiculous, often embarrassing corrections it can make. While not nearly as good as the ones on damnyouautocorrect.com, one time I sent a boy "Poop time?" instead of "Pool* time?" Thank you, autocorrect for that absolutely mortifying change-up.  Never lived that one down.

Sometimes, however, autocorrect can be a magical thing. Point in case -- Cookies and Crime/ Creme*. I didn't think I had a pun for this recipe, and I was very sad you would all be missing out on a great one. Lucky for you, my iPhone solved yet another life problem. Impressive.

Imagine rice crispy treats with crushed oreos instead of rice crispies. Yah, I know. Mind blown.




What you'll need:
- 1 bag of regular marshmallows
- 1 package of oreo cookies
- 4 tbsp butter

How you make it:

Line an 8x8in baking pan with plastic wrap. Crush the oreos, but leave them a bit chunky. You can either use a food processor or put all of the oreos in a ziplock bag and smash them. Then, in a large (and I mean LARGE -- marshmallows expand), microwave the marshmallows and butter for 1.5-2 minutes until really puffy.

Next, add in the oreo and mix. Once the mixture has cooled a bit, you can pour it into the lined pan and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Cut and serve with a big glass of cold milk!
