What to do with Cookie Crumbs

We had some cookies that were falling apart into crumbs because they were stored in bags in the pantry instead of layered on waxed paper in a rubbermaid box in the freezer.

You can use these as ice-cream topping, as topping for pudding, combined with butter and sugar for a cookie crumb crust (like a graham cracker crust), and for cookie truffles (combine crumbs with some sugar and cream cheese, roll into balls, dip in melted chocolate or almond bark)

Or you can make:

Recipe: German Butterscotch Cookie Crumb Cookies


1/4 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar (tightly packed)
2 egg yolks
1/4 cup milk
1 cup flour
1/4 t salt
1/2 t soda
1/2 t cinnamon
1/4 cup walnuts
1 cup cookie crumbs

Cream butter, sugar, add egg yolks and continue heating. Stir in flour sifted with salt, soda and spice alternately with milk. Finally fold in walnuts and cookie crumbs. Drop from teaspoon. Bake in a moderate oven (350) 10 to 15 minutes.


These are kind of odd, but most kids just want cookies.
