    Is there another easy way to crush them? I don't have a crushing machine but I hate to use plastic bags because it sticks all over the bag and wastes it.

    You can put the Oreos between two sheets of wax paper and crush them with a rolling pin or your hand. Just make sure the sheets of paper are big enough that crumbs don't spill out.

    You can turn the bag inside out and scrape all the Oreo crumbs off the plastic with a rubber spatula or clean hands.

    The cream filling gets broken up and mixed into the Oreo crumbs when you leave it on the Oreos. You can however, remove the cream filling if you want to.

    You can leave the cream filling in the Oreos if you want, or you can remove it and throw it away or eat it later.

    Take ½ gallon of vanilla ice cream and crumble about 20 Oreos -- with the filling -- into it.

    Is there a way to use crushed Oreos in silicone molds for letters on cakes? Maybe mixing with the cream cheese and freezing?

    That might work. But if you don't have cream cheese, you could make buttercream frosting or something similar that will hold the oreo crumbs together.
