  • Chopping the sandwich cookies into different sizes, from crumbs to larger chunks, gives you the best texture throughout
03 -
  • Press a few extra cookie pieces onto the tops of the dough balls before baking for that bakery-worthy look
  • Try adding a pinch of espresso powder to the dry ingredients to deepen the chocolate flavor
