- You will need to crush the cookies to make this recipe. To do so, simply place the cookies in a zip top bag and use a mallet or similar item to crush the cookies.
- You do not want the cookies to be overly crushed to crumbles but, it it happens, you can simple add some larger chunks to the batter.
- This fudge will harden when placed in the refrigerator. To slice the fudge, allow it to get to room temperature. Lift the fudge out of the pan using the overhanging parchment paper before slicing.
