  1. Crush sandwich cookies in a food processor.
  2. Place into a small bowl and stir in melted butter.
  3. Take a mini cupcake pan and place a piece of plastic wrap over the pan. 
  4. Spoon 1 tablespoon of mixture into each well- it should make 12-14.
  5. Press the mixture down into the wells to cover the base to the top. Gently, press along the sides to make a little cup.
  6. Place in the freezer and move on to the next steps.
