Brown Butter Oreo Rice Krispie Treats

These are no-bake cereal treats made with browned butter, Oreos, and marshmallows. The main flavor driver here is the brown butter, which gets a boost from adding dry milk powder during the browning process. The key is to melt the marshmallows gently to keep the final treats soft.
