That's such a Minoushe...: Naughty Oreo, Bourbon and Marshmallow Squares....Great for emergency cake sales and parties

Ahhh Panic...I opened my inbox to find an email from my son's school reminding me that on Friday was his class's cake sale. I had a stinking cold and was feeling so grumpy but I couldn't let my little one down. I rattled my brain...what can I make that's easy and will hardly take any time? Got it! Oreo and Bourbon marshmallow squares. Next I had to check I had the ingredients....result! I did...

Ingredients

50g of unsalted butter
450g (2 bags) of marshmallows
450g of a mix of Oreos and Bourbon biscuits
Sprinkles, edible glitter and mini marshmallows for decorating

I first came across a very similar recipe on Pinterest. I adapted it and made it slightly more British. Instead of using all Oreo biscuits, I use a combination of Bourbons and Oreos - actually more like 300g of Bourbons and 150g of Oreos. I like this combo better not only are Oreos far dearer than Bourbons (in England) but I have found that using the Bourbons makes the recipe less heavy and not overpowering.

So to make the squares you need to

Line a shallow tray with baking paper and very lightly grease

Smash the hell out of the biscuits, I would personally use a food processor. Typically I hadn't unpacked my processor yet and I couldn't find the box. So I smashed the hell out of them while I patiently listened to my son practice on his piano.
Put the butter and the marshmallows in a saucepan on a low heat and stir with a wooden spoon* till they have melted.
