I figured out how to make a cookie base out of cookies that are already made. OK, not high on the list of tres chic cuisine, but it worked in a major pinch. I was Jonesing for dessert. Wanted something sweet after this major dinner I made while we were on vacation. We stayed in this executive suite that had a full-on set-up for cooking. Only I didn't have quite all of the ingredients required to bake. So I winged it. I went to the snack dispenser at the end of the hallway. I got two packages of Famous Amos chocolate chips cookies. I also got a Snickers. I mashed the cookies up until they were crumbs, I mixed the crumbs with a 1/4 butter and 4 sugar packets from the coffee we had that morning (desperation, I tell you). I mashed the whole mess together, pressed it onto an oven-proof plate and popped it in the oven for 12 minutes at 350. The sucker actually worked. I couldn't believe it. Then I chopped the Snickers up and topped the born again cookie with it. Then I sliced up fresh strawberries and presto! Dessert. That is white trash cooking at its finest, I tell you.
