Healthy Recipe Ideas
Dark Cookie Crumble Parfait
1. Crush 4-5 McVitie's cookies into coarse crumbs. 2. In a glass, create a layer of thick Greek yogurt. 3. Add a layer of cookie crumbs, followed by a layer of fresh berries (like strawberries or blueberries). 4. Repeat the layers and serve chilled.
Health Benefits
This parfait balances the cookie's sweetness with protein-rich yogurt and antioxidant-packed berries for a more satisfying snack.
No-Bake Cookie Pie Crust
1. Finely crush about 10-12 cookies. 2. Mix the crumbs with 2-3 tablespoons of melted butter until it resembles wet sand. 3. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a pie dish. 4. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before adding a no-bake filling.

Using this as a base for a homemade, fruit-filled tart can incorporate more vitamins and fiber into a dessert.
