unfortunately, i don't have pictures of the process (and the one picture i have is from my phone so is a bit grainy), but it is easy enough. i made these because i had some leftover cookies that were becoming a bit stale.
crumble up leftover cookies into fine crumbs. this can be done by using a food processor, a knife, or even your hands.
take 4 cups crushed crumbs, and mix with 1 1/2 sticks butter, melted. add milk teaspoons at a time to make moist enough.
pat this mixture into a cookie sheet pan, one that is long but has four walls. put this in the freezer while you are making the ganache.
make ganache:
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 pint heavy cream
12 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips
put chocolate in a bowl
heat butter and milk in sauce pan until just boiling.
add milk mixture to chocolate, stirring until smooth.
spread ganache over semi-frozen cookies. leave plain or add sprinkles, m&ms, whatever you want!
put the cookie sheet back into the freezer and wait until the ganache has hardened.
enjoy!
washed out- feel it all around *i love the beats here, especially mixed with his mellow voice and synthesizers
bombay bicycle club- autumn *although subtle and mellow, i really like the drums on this track and the beats towards the middle.
volcano choir- still *an awesome, experimental take on justin vernon's original version of "woods." i love the pitch shifting.
bonnie 'prince' billy- the seedling *older, but i have been listening to this track lately. although will oldham is usually a little more folkish, this track is a little more harsh with clearer drums and bass
los campesinos!- the sea is a good place to think about the future *indie band from wales, i like these lyrics.
the sound of animals fighting- the heretic (evol intent mix) *just because i really can't ever listen to this song enough. experimental and beautiful voices, even better when backed by evol intent's beats.
animal collective- what would i want sky (bbc sessions) *just. so. good. that's all.
crystal castles- vanished *experimental/electronic. older, but, still great.
grizzly bear- cheerleader (neon indian studio 6669 remix) *experimental, synthesizers... feel good track.
