Hi Ellaine, if you've already baked the cookies, adding melted butter won't really improve their texture or flavor. I would consider crumbling up the cookies and adding them as a streusel topping to ice cream or other treats that don't require further baking. They'll add a sweet crunch and you won't notice the reduced amount of butter.
