One idea is a take on the Scottish Broken Biscuit Cake. Instead of using biscuit (cookie) crumbs, you could try using the cake crumbs. I would wait until they are stale to make this:
One pound plain chocolate One pound of butter or firm margarine One pound broken mixed biscuits (or cake crumbs) Half pound chopped mixed roasted nuts One teaspoon vanilla a essence (extract)
Melt the butter and chocolate together and stir. Mix in the well broken biscuits, nuts and essence/extract and pour into a 10" by 15" baking tin, lined with greaseproof paper (vegetable parchment). Smooth to a level top and leave it to set. Cut into fingers (literally a finger thick).
cherry pie filling chocolate cake crumbs whipped cream chocolate sprinkles maraschino cherries for garnish
In parfait glasses, layer ingredients in the following order: pie filling, cake, pie filling, whipped cream, sprinkles, cherry.
You can make this with any pie filling and any cake. In America the combination of cherries, chocolate, and cream(or vanilla) is usually called "Black Forest" -- don't know why.
