What's your favorite cookie?

Chocolate chip, preferably homemade.

And the Girl Scout cookies that come in the purple box.

What??!! No mention of Famous Amos Chocolate Chip cookies??
You all don’t know what you’re missing.

Also, I’m pleased to see little menion of the vastly over-rated, mediocre-at-best Girl Scouts cookies.

Whoops, looks like I spoke a bit too soon.

Yeah, I remember those. They’re great! Way too easy to scarf down a whole bag.

Well apparently none of you went to UCLA or live in or near westwood, because the hands-down-best-without-a-doubt-cookie-in-the-entire-world-ever is the sugar cookie from dee dee ree’s(never really looked at the sign and I don’t know how it’s supposed to be spelled) as far as I know it’s not a chain, but I’ve been wrong before. As an added bonus they are only a quarter

I haven’t been able to find my favorite packaged cookies in years. They were granola chocolate chip cookies. I don’t know which company made them. The last time I had them was around 1991 in Brooklyn. I made a pilgrimage to Brooklyn a couple of years ago to see I could find them, but no luck.

If anyone knows if these are still available anywhere, **PLEASE let me know. **

When I was kid, my favorite were Fryhoffer’s(sp?)chocolate chip cookies, which we could only get on family trips to New England. When I tried them as an adult, they were awful. Either my taste has changed drastically (I don’t think so) or some #*&%@ changed the recipe.

Homemade: No Bake Cookies. For those who aren’t familiar, these are made on the stove with cocoa, peanut butter, quick oats, nuts, vanilla extract, some other stuff I can’t remember. Horribly addictive…but an acquired taste.

Storebought: Mrs. Fields coconut macadamia nut, GS Samoas, those powdered-sugar covered ones called Lemon Coolers. Haven’t seen them in years, and don’t even know if they’re still on the shelves at the grocery store.

Homemade chocolate-chip walnut cookies. Using the same recipe as storebought Mrs. Fields (which cost my mom $250 dollars, which they friggin charged on her credit card when she thought it was gonna be a fraction of that), with a little bit of experimentation on her part, they have become the quasi-heavenly Food of the Gods ™.

WARNING to galen, hypergirl, Motorgirl, ssskuggiii, Nimue and Medievelist2:
Pepperidge Farms has just come out with Chocolate-Covered Milanos

good god in a bottle, it’s sin in a paper bag.

I like my mom’s chocolate chip cookies. Store-bought, I like Oreos and Keebler’s Fudge Stripe.

My mom adores milanos… they’re too high class for me! :stuck_out_tongue:

Hmmm…too hard to pick just one.

Store bought: Oreo Doublestuffs, Vienna Fingers and Sugar Wafers.

Girl Scout: Thin Mints…from the “Most likely to scarf-down a whole box” category.

Bakery: Black and Whites…my favorite of all

Second rate? second-RATE?!

No no no. Hydrox came first. Oreos are just a knockoff.

My grandfather, crljohnson, was a buyer for a large midwestern grocery wholesaler for 48 years. He would not let us forget that the Sunshine (now Keebler) product was the original.

The non-kosher ingredient in Oreos was called “lard.” :smiley: The funny thing is, Sunshine was never certified OU - they just had a “k” on the package, which I think means the following: “Hey Joey, these look kosher to you?” “Sure, Ralph, just stick the “k” on.” So now Oreos, with their OU, are actually “better.”

I still like Hydrox better - they cookies are lighter and the filling isn’t as stiff. Hydrox never made a Double Stuff equivalent, and that always kinda grossed me out anyway. Especially gross are those seasonal colors - tell me, Scribble, would you let your kids buy the orange Halloween oreos? Or the red Christmas ones? I don’t think the OU certification would quite make up for that…:slight_smile:

Keebler Fudge Stripes. They kick ass.

Homemade–I came up with a recipe for (well, it was more like I was cleaning out my cupboard, and dumped a bunch of stuff into the dough to see how it would turn out) White-Chocolate Chip, Cherry & Macadamia Nut Oatmeal Cookies. It was a success, and I make them a few times a year. Yum.

Storebought–I love those Animal Circus cookies. Not the Animal Crackers, but the pink & white frosted animal cookies. Brings me back to being a kid.
