Ideas for using up stale chocolate biscuits?

NualaBuala

I have an assortment of chocolate biscuits I got at Christmas, a sort of Continental selection. They weren't very nice which is why they didn't get eaten with all the other goodies!

I hate waste so find it so hard to throw anything out but I know I won't eat them. I thought of giving them to the birds but think I heard chocolate is bad for them. Does anyone have any idea for using them up or should I just chuck them?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Could you use them to make a cheesecake base?

Or one of those no cook chocolate biscuit recipe's?

Rocky road? Cheesecake base? Part of a trifle/crumble? Crumble down to top angel delight

I'm delighted and amazed nobody has laughed at me for not wanting to waste them!

Lovely ideas folks. I'm not overly keen on cheesecake these days but I will look into the no cook choc biscuit recipe as it sounds easy and I am lazy lol!

Rocky Road - I don't know what that is, will have to look that up to see if it's easy!

Thank you all for your suggestions, much appreciated! :T

I think you're absolutely right. They're nothing but trouble, and cluttering up the place. Send them to me, and I will sort them out for you.:D


(PS: For a biscuit to be stale, the equation is this|:
Biscuit = stale
only when the date on the calendar and the BBD on the tin are apart by a factor of more than 10 months)

I like your thinking Mandragora!

I've never met a chocolate biscuit I didn't like!!!!!!!!!

Normally I would say the same Mrswive ... but these were too sweet and a bit coconutty or something. And being a bit stale hasn't helped.

I doubt anyone here would laugh at you for not wanting to just throw them out, I throw literally nothing out, unless it's that's stale that I could be cultivating a new type of penicillin on it.... And even then I'd be tempted to just scrape the fuzz off.....
I'd probably turn it into a rocky road type thing though if I ever came across a choccy biccy I didn't like, though it's doubtful with my chocaholic sweet tooth!!

I'm the same LittleLauz - I have trimmed mould off cheese many a time! I'm wondering if this is the only forum where I wouldn't get branded a lunatic for not wanting to get rid! :rotfl:

I've looked up Rocky Road and it does ineed sounds scrummy. I don't have all the ingredients in but am very tempted to add them to my shopping list.

This is bad ... I'm meant to be trying to lose weight!
