Pink Lemondade Oreo Squares Recipes

PINK LEMONADE BARS

Steps:

• Make the crust:
• Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 350°F. Grease 8x8" baking pan with butter or nonstick cooking spray. Line pan with parchment, leaving a generous overhang on all sides, and grease parchment with butter or nonstick cooking spray.
• Purée flour, powdered sugar, salt, and lemon zest in a food processor until combined. Add 6 Tbsp. butter and pulse just until dough forms.
• Press dough into bottom of prepared pan and about 1/2" up sides. Chill at least 30 minutes.
• Prick bottom of crust with a fork and bake until light golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• Make the filling and bake bars:
• Purée raspberries in a blender until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl.
• Whisk eggs, granulated sugar, and lemon juice in another medium bowl. Whisk in pomegranate juice, salt, and 1/4 cup raspberry purée until smooth, then whisk in flour until combined. (Reserve remaining raspberry purée for other use.) Pour filling into crust and bake until filling is set and slightly golden at the edges, about 20 minutes more.
• Transfer pan to a wire rack and let cool completely. Loosen edges with an offset spatula or butter knife, then use parchment paper overhang to remove bar from pan. Place bar on parchment on a cutting board and cut into 4 pieces lengthwise, then 4 pieces crosswise to make 16 bars. Dust bars with powdered sugar.
• Do Ahead
• Raspberry purée can be made and chilled in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Assembled bars can be chilled in a single layer in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

OREO MARSHMALLOW SQUARES

Steps:

• Spray a 9-by-12-inch pan with cooking spray, then place a layer of parchment paper cut to size on top. Spray the top of the parchment so it is coated lightly.
• Pour 1/2 cup cold water in a small microwave-safe bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder on top and stir well. Let stand for at least 3 minutes to allow the gelatin to absorb the water.
• Combine the granulated sugar, corn syrup, honey and 1/3 cup water in a small saucepan and heat to 250 degrees F. The syrup will thicken and be boiling. Pour the syrup into the bowl of a stand mixer and let stand to cool down to 212 degrees F; this happens fairly quickly.
• Microwave the gelatin mixture for 30 seconds to a minute or until the gelatin is completely melted but not over 135 degrees F.
• Add the melted gelatin mixture to the cooked syrup. Place the bowl on the mixer with a whip attachment and whip on high, stopping after about 7 minutes to add the vanilla, until the mixture gets white and fluffy, 8 to 10 minutes. Fold in 1 1/2 cups of the crushed Oreos®. Scrape the mixture out into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Top with the remaining 2 cups of crushed Oreos®. Set aside to allow the marshmallows to set up, a couple of hours.
• Cut the marshmallows and toss in a 50/50 cornstarch-confectioners' sugar mixture to prevent them from sticking back together. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
