Has anyone got a recipe for broken biscuit cake, I've got a biscuit tin full of odds and ends which need using. Thanks in advance.

you could use them as a base for cheesecake

Taurus's recipe is good - I'd be inclined to add coconut and glace cherries.

I have been sorting things out in my new kitchen and decided the biscuit box needed emptying as there were more broken biscuits and crumbs than whole biscuits. Now I have a large sandwich bag full of broken biscuits and don't know what to do with them other than feeding the birds! Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Use them as a base for cheesecake, sprinkle on top of ice cream, or mix with fruit and whipped cream as a sort of alternative eton mess.
Personally being a bit of a piggy, I'd sit down with the bag and a spoon, yum!

My mum used to make a refridgerator cake using melted butter, syrup, cocoa and a spoonful or two of soft brown sugar. Melt together and then stir in the biscuit crumbs. Press into a cake tin, cool and cut into slices to eat. If you have any knocking around a coating of chocolate is fantastic with this as are a few raisins or chopped up dried apricots in the biscuit crumb mix. I think I might need to go and make some myself.

I make this when we get to the end of the biscuit tin, with all the broken bits and crumbs and it's delish! I usually use Tesco value chocolate to make it, it's something like 23p a bar or similar.

Am currently liking the ice cream topping idea. Very much.
