Walnut cranberry cookie crust cheese dessert
This shelf holds a single packaged cookie, so tonight is a no-cook dessert built straight from it. Crumble the cookies into a press-in crust, add cream cheese and a touch of whipped cream, and you have a composed plate in five minutes. Suit yourself with what you pile on top.

To buy
- 4 ounces cream cheese
From your shelf
- 6 cookies [about 120 g] Oatmeal cranberry walnut cookies
Staples
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Crush six cookies into crumbs by hand in a bowl, then stir in 2 tablespoons melted butter until the mixture holds together when pressed.
- Pack the crumbs into the bottom of two small bowls or glasses, pressing firmly with the back of a spoon to form an even layer.
- Soften 4 ounces cream cheese at room temperature for five minutes, then divide it between the two bowls and spread or swirl it over the crust with a spoon.
Note Crumbled leftover cookies keep for three days in an airtight container and can top yogurt or ice cream. Serve this with fresh berries, a drizzle of honey, or a dusting of cocoa powder to stretch it or change its character. Swap the cream cheese for mascarpone if you have it.
