It doesn’t get a whole lot easier than Rice Krispie treats. But they are so fun to change up! In this version we are adding birthday cake Oreos and cake mix. It’s a fun twist on an old classic.

How to Make Cookies and Cream Cake Batter Rice Krispie Treats

This is just a brief overview of this delicious recipe. For the full recipe with all of the measurements, see the recipe card at the bottom of the post.

  1. Melt the marshmallows with the butter. I like to do this on the stovetop over low heat.
  2. Combine the rest of the ingredients. Add in the Oreos, cake mix, vanilla, and sprinkles.
  3. Push into the pan. Allow them to set, then remove them from the pan and cut.

Rice Krispie Treats

Rice Krispie treats are the best classic treat. This recipe has the best balance of cereal and marshmallows for the perfect dessert!

Birthday Cake Oreos

When this post was first made, I was totally obsessed with golden birthday cake Oreos. They are absolutely perfect in these. They are hard to come by now. So you can simple use the chocolate version, or you can use golden Oreos. Both will be delicious in these.

    This morning I literally stumbled upon your website through your crack brownies and decided to explore one more recipe before my kids woke up…my heart goes out to you after reading about Elliot. I had three miscarriages before my daughter was born and each time I think of where they would have been if….thank you for writing about Elliot and take care.

    I’ve two friends from my past, both born on September 1, who each touched my life and changed it. Now I will add your Elliot to that team, as his and your stories have so touched me.
    I had so many miscarriages that I basically lost count, then I had a set of twins, Augusta and Max, who came early and were still born, and I died during that experience. But then, I got better and then I was given the greatest gift, my daughter, who is now 11 and a half going on 25. She loves everything having to do with cake batter, cookie dough, Rice Krispie treats, Hershey’s kisses and sprinkles. After she has one of these after school, today or tomorrow, she will adore ADORE! you and want to be your friend forever. So thank you for this recipe and know that so many folks world over, feel you as a friend, because of your generosity here.
    Be well always.
