Cake Crumb Cookies image

A great way to use up leftover cake from leveling cake layers or cake that is starting to dry up. I have successfully made this using day-old muffins. Just add more sugar depending on how sweet your cake/muffin crumbs are to start. These cookies are soft, spicy and open to variation. Add more milk if your dough seems dry

Time 25m

Yield 48 cookies, 48 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 eggs
1 cup milk
5 -7 cups cake crumbs
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup margarine, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon allspice or 1/2 teaspoon oats
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Crush cake into crumbs in a food processor.
  • Beat eggs and milk then add cake crumbs and let stand 15 minutes.
  • Blend in sugar, margarine and vanilla.
  • In a separate bowl sift together flour, soda, baking powder, salt, and spices and add to sugar mixture. Fold in remaining ingredients.
  • Drop by the tablespoonful on greased cookie sheets. Flatten to about 1/3" thick. These cookies do not spread so you can space them close to each other.
  • Bake 10-15 minutes until edges and bottoms are golden. They won't brown much overall. Store airtight.

These cookies were a bit dry. I think I'll try adding some more butter next time.

I had a hard time finding cake crumbs, so I ended up using a box of crushed graham crackers. The cookies still turned out great!

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I've made these cookies several times now, and they're always a favorite. They're so versatile - I've added chocolate chips, nuts, and even dried fruit. They're always a hit!

I love how easy these cookies are to make. I didn't have any cake crumbs on hand, so I just used a box of yellow cake mix. They turned out great!
