Black Cat Oreo Rice Krispie Bites
Course Dessert
Cuisine American
Servings 4 people

Equipment

  • Large saucepan
  • Baking sheet
  • Microwave-safe bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 20 large marshmallows
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 8 Oreo cookies, crushed
  • 1 cup black candy melts
  • 16 candy eyes
  • 8 Oreo cookies, halved

Instructions
 

  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add the marshmallows and stir until fully melted and smooth.
  • Remove the pan from heat. Stir in the Rice Krispies cereal and crushed Oreo cookies until evenly coated.
  • Let the mixture cool for two minutes, then scoop out portions and shape them into 8 small bites. Place the bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Melt the black candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth.
  • Dip each bite into the melted candy melts to coat the top and sides. Immediately press two candy eyes and two Oreo halves into the top of each bite to form the cat face.
  • Let the candy melts set at room temperature before serving.

Notes

Work quickly when shaping the bites so the mixture does not harden too much. If the candy melts thicken while dipping, warm them for a few seconds and stir again. Store finished bites in a single layer in an airtight container at room temperature to keep the coating from cracking.
