    Make a berry parfait for yourself by layering fresh berries, non fat whipped topping, and a sprinkle of cookie crumbs in alternate layers. The parfait will not only look delicious, it will taste wonderful too...

    Blend cookie crumbles very finely and add some butter, about half a stick melted, to create a cookie crumb crust you can press into a pan. This is a terrific base for a banana cream pie or frozen ice cream pie.....

    Or just a bowl of ice cream....sprinkle some cookie crumbles in the bowl...add 3 scoops of ice cream..then add more cookie crumbles......

    Take plain yogurt...add cookie crumbs....call it a yogurt crunch........

    You can crush then up fine and use to top banana loaf.

    Or as the base of s'more cupcakes, or 15's which is fridge biscuit made from 15 crushed digestives (around 25 grame crackers, but you can use your lovely cookies) 15 quartered marshmallows, 15 halved Glase cherries, 2/3 cup condensed milk. mix everything together in a big bowl, then turn out onto a sheet of glad wrap sprinkled with coconut and roll into a log. Put this in the fridge after an hour or 2 you can cut these into rounds, you should get 15 biscuits.

    I worked reception with all sking, all hill climbing Californian who loves these and every time he moves he asks of the recipe for the fifteen minuters!

    Congratulations on your pregnancy, hope you get a great recipe out of this question.

    I have a great recipe that uses cookie crumbs as a base for a cake.

    The original name is Vanilla Tea Cake and uses vanilla wafers but we are going to change that for you.

    Chippy Tea Cake

    Pre heat oven to 300 degrees F.

    Grease and flour a tube cake or Bundt pan.

    1 Cup butter

    2 Cups sugar

    6 eggs

    12 ounces chocolate chip cookie crumbs..or any other cookie

    7 1/2 ounces coconut..process a bit if you like to avoid strings of coconut

    1/2 Cup milk

    1 Cup ground pecans..or other nut if you like.

    Additional vanilla if you like about 2 tsp.

    Mix butter and sugar in bowl of mixer, scrape down sides.

    Add eggs one at a time, beat between additions

    Mix in cookie crumbs and milk, mix well.

    add remaining ingredients, mix well.

    Pour into prepared pan.

    Bake 2 hours.

    The 2 hour bake time is not a typo.

    This is a very dense and moist cake and can handle the 2 hours.

    you could definetly use them as a base crushed up for a chocolate cheesecake. but also for a slice. just mix a little melted butter (just enough to make the crumbs hold) and the crushed biscuit crumbs in a bowl and spread it in a baking tin. then you could just make a chocolate slice and pour it in and bake. or for something really different. keep them the way they are and microwave them until they're just soft enough to squish with a spoon and use it as a layer in a choolate trifle.it would give it a new spin instead of the usual sponge cakes that are used. hope I've given you some good ideas and happy cooking (:

    Not sure what you can eat. You could crush the up and mix with melted butter for a pie crust for a chocolate pudding pie. Use Cook n Serve or Instant Chocolate Pudding and top with Cool Whip or whipped cream.

    Ice Cream Parfait: Layer Ice Cream, Broken Cookies, Chocolate Syrup, Berries or Preserves and top with whipped cream.

    Congratulations!

    Why is cheesecake a no go if you're pregnant? It's not alcoholic or anything. Anyway, how about trifle? Or use them as a sort of flan base with fruit on top.. Or crush them up & use them as a crumble topping instead.

    All the best with the baby.

    i've never made it into ice cream cake, although i am meaning to still do it, but here is how i make ice cream: - 1 cup unwhipped whipping cream - 1/2 cup pudding mix - some liquid you can totally combine your own, and add blended fruit. i've made vanilla, vanilla with cookies, pineapple, mango (that was yum), coffee, chocolate, strawberry (i used jello for that, very popular). you just whip the whipping cream, add the pudding and liquid (to make it less dense, you can use water). then to turn it into cake you can pour it into a graham cracker crust, top it with fruit, melted chocolate, anything you want really...
