Abstract: Small cookies, known as cookie bits, are combined with other ingredients, especially chocolate, as the basis of finished candy products or other edible cookie bits products. The product entails using a tiny cookie as an ingredient in chocolate bars or clusters, ice cream items, or in candy items, as a substitute for fruits and nuts, in the fields of ice cream, candy and cereal, and as a replacement for nuts, fruits and chocolate chips. The cookie bit may be the center of panned items, usually elliptical or spherical in shape, in which the cookie bit per se is covered with chocolate and an outer coating of candy glaze or sugar coating and polish. The present cookie bit product features the cookie bit itself as an ideal ingredient for a candy bar producer to mold into the bar or cluster in place of, or along with, nuts and fruits.
