Food Friday--Marshmallow-Oreo-Squares

It is nearly 2:00 in the morning and I am working on a paper that is due Sunday.  It's a ten-pager that I only found out about earlier this week.  So far I have completed seven pages and now I am stuck, so I figured I would post a recipe.  :)

I don't really know what to call this except OMG-my-teeth-are-rotting-out-of-my-head sweet.  If you like Oreos and Rice Krispie Treats, you might like this.  It's easy, I'll say that much for it.  The teenager in my home likes it, but thinks that instead of crushing the cookies, I should have run them through the food processor, and I think he is right.

I will post a picture of the finished product after I get the paper done.

Yummy!

Marshmallow Oreo Bars

What you need
1 bag of Marshmallows
1 package of Oreos (not the Double Stuff unless you want to kill yourself with sugar)
4 Tablespoons butter

What you do

Place your marshmallows (you could even make your own if I gave you the recipe!) in a large, preferably glass bowl. 

Cut your butter into chunks and toss randomly on top of the marshmallows. 

Either crush your Oreos, or run them briefly through a food processor.  You want them ground up, not liquefied, so don't leave them in too long. 

Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper, aluminum foil, or plastic wrap if you must, making sure to let some overhang the top--this is for you to grab hold of and remove the sticky mass from the dish,

After the Oreos are dealt with, put your bowl of marshmallows in the microwave and nuke until they are big and puffy, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.

Stir the Oreo particles into the marshmallows really well, then dump into your lined baking dish and smooth the top the best you can. 

Let cool, then remove from the dish and cut into squares.  Give your dentist lots of money for dentures because your teeth rotted out.
