Ingredients

1/4 cup salted butter
4-6 drops black gel food colouring, optional (but your cookie will not be as black without it)
4 cups mini marshmallows
39 whole Oreo Cookies, crushed

Instructions

Measure the butter, food colouring (if using), into a saucepan and set over medium heat. Stir to melt the butter and incorporate the food colouring into the melted butter.
Once the butter is melted, add the marshmallows and continuously stir with a rubber spatula to prevent burning until the marshmallows are fully melted.
Remove the melted marshmallows from the heat and immediately add the crushed Oreos. Stir until fully incorporated.
Spoon the mixture into heaping tablespoons onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Set the cookies aside to cool until firm - about 2-3 hours.
Once firm, transfer the cookies to a cookie jar or tin with an airtight seal to prevent them from drying out. Store the cookies at room temperature on your countertop for 3-5 days.
