What’s strange is that I’m not even a Rice Kirspies treat person. Typically at I find that they are too dense, hard, and just not enjoyable unless super fresh. But these bars are just different. In addition to being vegan, they are so rich and flavorful…You have to give them try. Especially if you’re crammed for time!
Oreo Rice Krispies Treats
Servings
12 Servings
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons vegan butter can be omitted
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 10 oz. vegan marshmallows
- 1 1/2 cups vegan creme filled chocolate cookies
- 6 cups Rice Krispies
- 1 cup vegan chocolate chips
- 3 tablespoons almond milk
Instructions
- In a medium size pan on medium heat add the butter and coconut oil. Once melted, add the marshmallows and continue to stir the mixture until fully melted (make sure to keep stirring and not have the temp up to high to prevent burning).
- In a small bowl add all the chocolate cookies without the creme filling to the bowl. Smash the cookies with your hands, leaving a variety of small size pieces, don’t crumble into dust. yet.
- Gradually add the Rice Krispies and chocolate cookies until everything is covered with the mixture and it all binds together.
- Remove from heat, and begin to spread with a spoon onto a slightly greased pan, until cooled. Place in the fridge to set.
- In a small pan over low/medium heat place the vegan chocolate chips in there and add almond milk. Continue stirring so you don’t burn the chocolate. Once melted, remove from fridge and coat the top with a thick layer of chocolate. Smash the remaining cookies into dust and coat the tops of the bars with cookies.
- Place back in the fridge to set for another 10 minutes. Slice and serve immediately and store away so they don’t dry out and harden as fast!

I’m confused as well. Maybe it’s a mistake?
Most marshmallows are not vegan; the recipe should specify VEGAN marshmallows in case someone is making them for a friend and doesn’t realize that the gelatin used–even in kosher marshmallows–might be fish or bovine.
You are right thanks and I will add that
Is it ok to leave out the coconut oil?
Yes
What happens to the cream in cookies? Step says crumble cookies without cream
Good question, I guess she just discards them, not sure why they can’t be used or maybe better to find cookies that don’t have the filling.
