What’s in the Recipe?
Cookies: Crushed cookies are the base of this recipe. I used Oreo.
Milk: It helps bind the cookie crumbles together and adds moisture to them.

White chocolate: White chocolate makes the coating for this recipe and has the perfect consistency for drizzling and design.
Candy eyeballs: Are edible candy eyes used for pastry/dessert designs.
