What are Chocolate wafers? Substitute For Chocolate Wafers If you don't have chocolate wafers then here are a couple good alternatives: If you want another chocolate cookie to use for a pie crust you could substitute equal amounts of Oreo cookies ground in a blender until fine.

You do not know their every whim, their every memory, their every scuttled desire and unrealized dream. You know of your elders what they let you see.
