Ingredients
This shelf stable recipe uses just two ingredients. Chocolate wafers and golden oreos.
Wafers - Chocolate Flavored Creme Sugar Wafers
Vanilla Cream Filled Cookies - I used regular Golden Oreos but double stuffed is better and gives a more crumbled look.
How to Make Chocolate Eclair Crunch Topping
Step 1- Crumble - Use a food processor or small blender to crumble the wafers and vanilla cookies separately.
Step 2 - Mix - Place both crumbles in a bowl and mix. Ready to eat.
If you do not have a food processor or blender, use a plastic storage bag and rolling pin to crumble the cookies.
Do not over blend or process, to prevent a very fine or flour like mixture. You want to see some crumble chunks.
Storage
Store your chocolate crumbles in an airtight container. Since this is a shelf stable recipe it can be stored in a cool dry pantry, in the refrigerator or freezer.
No bake crunch topping can last up to a month in a cool dry pantry, make sure it is in an airtight container. If you prefer to store it in the refrigerator, for up to two months or in the freezer for up to six months.
