Lumps of Coal – Christmas Making and Baking

This recipe made its rounds on Facebook last December.  When I made it last year, the boys absolutely loved it.

Today I made a batch, and the Wee One told me it was as good as last year.  Score!

Lumps of Coal

Stars of the recipe:

• 1 package of Oreos (or 36 Oreos), crushed
• 5 c. mini marshmallows
• 4 Tbsp. butter

Steps:

1. Crush Oreos and then place them in a big bowl.
2. Meanwhile, melt butter and marshmallows in a big pot.
3. Add the crushed Oreos.
4. Mix the Oreos and melted butter, and marshmallow mixture until combined.
5. Place the mixture in an 8 by 8 pan sprayed with cooking spray.  (I sprayed cooking spray on my clean hand before pressing the mixture down.  You can also use a spoon sprayed down with cooking spray.)
6. Allow the mixture to set for 1/2 hour before cutting it into squares.

Happy Eating,
