Let's say I saved a snipplet of a footer. How do I "include" that in my current template?
I know this question has already been marked as answered, but I believe what you were looking for is the 'partial' syntax. In EJS, you can include the content from one view template in another like so:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
Blah blah blah
<%- partial('footer') %>
</body>
</html>
