Bauducco Chocolate & Vanilla Wafer Cookies - Convenient Single Serve Wafer Cookies With 3 Layers of Cream - Delicious Sweet Snack on the go or Dessert 28.2oz (Pack of 20)

Over 10,000 reviews, yet no one else has figured out this awesome baking hack that you can do with these tasty wafers. Everyone knows how tasty these are. But don't realize there's a secret use for them in your kitchen when baking. So I won't keep it a secret, I'll let you in on the baking hack:WAFER COOKIE PIE CRUST.Put a new spin on a custom crust for your next cheesecake, key lime pie, lemon meringue, or countless other treats that call for a traditional or graham-cracker style pie crust.INGREDIENTS:1. 9 ounces of vanilla or chocolate wafer cookies*2. 4-6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened or melted.*Bauducco sells a "family size" 9 ounce package, though you can also get two packs of the smaller sizes and just leave a few of the cookie wafers out.DIRECTIONS:1. Add the cookie wafers and butter in a food processor or suitable blender until fully blended. If needed, use a silicone spatula or similar utensil to scrape the sides of the processor/blender once or twice during this step.2. Take this blended mixture and place it on an eight to nine-inch pie plate.3. Use your fingers to press the crumbs down into the pie plate so that you have a nice even layer all around.OPTIONAL STEP:4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place the pie plate with your-pressed in crust inside, and bake for ten minutes. Remove from oven, and let it cool completely before adding your filling (whether it's something you need to continue baking, or adding a filling is the final step).You don't have to do step #4. But doing that step will make for firmer, slightly harder crust that won't break apart too easily (a plus if you plan on adding a no-bake cheesecake filling).This works well with both the vanilla wafer cookies, and obviously works great with the chocolate ones. But for myself, I simply enjoy experimenting with different types of pies I can use this crust with. And then enjoy getting compliments when guests try a slice of pie or cheesecake, and are pleasantly surprised by the crust. They NEVER guess how you made it, and it's up to you if you want to share the little secret.

Since I try to avoid chocolate, as I think I have a slight chocolate allergy, I am always looking for cookies without chocolate. This brand of wafers is one of the better tasting ones that I have tried. The price was quite low, but went up some, but still a good buy.

These cookies are wonderful. Not a lot of sugar.

Very good taste & creamy texture. A little more sweet than I thought but very good. I wish it came in a bigger package. Next time I will purchase more.

I feel like they made a mistake and maybe just sent me the chocolate kind instead of coconut. I'm in the picture on the front so it's white filling which I assume would be the coconut with the chocolate wafer but I don't taste any coconut whatsoever just chocolate. It's not like it's bad, it's fine. I don't hate chocolate but I definitely wanted coconut flavor. Certainly a bit let down. I do not recommend, unless this was a mistake, in which case idk...

Great snack! Traveled well considering it’s a crumbly food. Tasted fresh and delicious! Would buy again.

Good cookies, cheap price. Good seller. Fast shipping

Not what I expected.
