as one of new york city’s most well known bakeries, it’s no secret that we’re baking off dozens of cookies left and right, day in and day out. but if you {like us} find yourself with leftover cookies and no clue what to do with them, never fear, we’ve got you covered! 

the onset of the pandemic forced us to get creative with our excess pastries and dream up fun & inventive ways to repurpose our {oprah famous!} cookies. hours of recipe testing & a few late nights in the kitchen later, some of our favorite culinary inventions were born. 

perfect for all the seasons & just about any occasion, these low-fuss recipe ideas are as delicious as they are simple. better yet? make them with the kiddos for the perfect family-friendly activity. 

maman's cookie tiramisu

a fun play on the traditional italian dessert, maman's cookie tiramisu is the perfect summertime dessert. creamy mascarpone blends with whipping cream, cocoa powder, freshly brewed espresso and leftover nutty chocolate chip cookies to make the ultimate show-stopping treat. better yet? make a batch a day in advance and store in the fridge—this recipe only gets better with time.

nutty chocolate chip hot chocolate

what’s better than hot cocoa on a cold winter day? a hot cocoa with cookies! the combination of walnut milk & oat milk accentuates the nuttiness of the cookie crumbles, blending perfectly with sweetened cocoa powder.

ice cream sandwich

what dessert represents summer nostalgia more than an ice cream sandwich? wow your little ones {or unleash your inner child!} & sandwich a hefty scoop of your favorite ice cream between two nutty chocolate chip cookies. pro tip: let your finished sandwiches rest in the freezer for a few hours to allow the cookies and ice cream to meld together. we may be biased, but coffee flavored ice cream is our go to pick for ice cream sandwiches :)

ice cream sundae topping bar

ice cream sandwiches may be the ultimate summer dessert, but sundaes are a close second. be the star of your next family barbeque or pool party & make an ice cream sundae bar with a variety of toppings like cookie crumbles, sprinkles, fruit, or whatever else you fancy. the options are endless!
