Bread Crumb Cookies Recipes

THE BEST NO BAKE SHORTBREAD CRUST

Steps:

• Place cookies in a large gallon size ziploc bag. Seal all but 1" of the bag (so air can escape) and roll with a rolling pin until the cookies are a fine crumb. You can also use a food processor, if you have one.
• Place cookie crumbs, sugar, and butter in a large bowl and stir with a fork until the mixture looks like wet sand. Place in a 9" pie plate and press until it's very compact.
• Chill crust for 1 hour before filling.
• Note: The crust is perfect no-bake: it's crunchy and slices just fine. If you really want to bake it, you can do so for 8 minutes at 350° and then fill as desired.

CRUMBL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
• In a medium bowl whisk the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• Cream the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium speed (with paddle attachment) for 2-3 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
• Add the egg and vanilla, beat on medium speed for 1 minute.
• Add the dry ingredients and mix until JUST combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
• Using a ½ cup measuring cup, portion the dough into equal 1/2 cup size balls (I like to use a kitchen scale to get the balls equally portioned. Each dough ball should weigh 5-5.5 oz each). See note #2. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet. Leave enough space between each cookie, I do 2 per tray.
• Bake for 9-12 minutes. The tops will be lightly golden and the tops set. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to sit on the tray for 10 minutes (the cookies will continue to bake/set while on the sheet). Transfer to a wire rack to cool for at least 10 minutes before eating. The cookies need time to set. (Refer to the notes section for more tips).
• Store cookies in an airtight container. See note #3
