Oddly enough, I've taken a strong liking to "Hermit's Cookies"

The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:31 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm all about the Nutter Butter, yumm

Also I think the cookie monster is eating a flapjack.

Sitting on the porch with a chocolate chip cookie and an ice cold glass of whole milk while Aunt Bea cleans my house = classic.

Morley Timmons OTM. Unfortunately, they've something on the order of 70 calories per cookie

Lawrence Kansas = Opie!

The Huckle-Buck (Horace Mann), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Im also partial to entemanns chocolate chip cookies. homemade are obviously the best.

Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Jel there is a cookie with "Digestives" in the title? are they safe?

Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:34 (twenty-two years ago)

biscuits and cookies are not really the same thing

stevem (blueski), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:35 (twenty-two years ago)

stockholm cindy (Jody Beth Rosen), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:39 (twenty-two years ago)

I think they sell these at my grocey store in the "British" section. They have some interesting cookies.

My wife feels the same way Jodi.

Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:40 (twenty-two years ago)

esp. in the USA where you can get a biscuit with your chicken...

but UK biscuits are thinner than cookies. The supermarkets here all do their 'American Style cookies' in packs of 5 but only do chocolate chip, white chocolate, oatmeal and raisin (way too many raisins for my liking) and M&M cookies. They're not all that. I like US style cookies soft if warm, hard if cool. Oatmeal with nuts and SOME raisins would be my favourite I think although Millies cookie stalls (occasional in train stations and shopping centres) do nice Apricot & almond and esp. Apple & Cinnamon.

Berger cookies--a Baltimore delicacy. There's more icing than actual cookie.

Lee G (Lee G), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:41 (twenty-two years ago)

yes grocery store bagged cookies in the US are all hard and nasty. Fresh cookies is where its at.

Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:41 (twenty-two years ago)

my mother makes these peanut butter cookies with a hersheys kiss pressed into the middle of it. OMFG!

Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:42 (twenty-two years ago)

Anyway, the black and white cookie is where it's at.

Homemade oatmeal raisin with milk MMMMMMM

Jordan (Jordan), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:43 (twenty-two years ago)

pizelles. mmmm.

Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:44 (twenty-two years ago)

Homemade oatmeal raisin is where it's at, or brickle bits instead of the raisins. I haven't made a batch in ages! Maybe when I hand in the thesis portion I'll bake some to celebrate.

I also have a weakness for nutter butter. Luckily I have yet to find them in the UK.

many xpost.

Oooh, this is the thread for this question: What do you call a cookie that has a graham-cracker base, topped with marshmallow, and then all covered in chocolate? I thought they were Mallomars, Sarah thinks they are Pinwheels? Are we both right?

NA (Nick A.), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:47 (twenty-two years ago)

MoonPie.

Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:48 (twenty-two years ago)

But thats def a mallomar.

Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Friday, 28 May 2004 15:49 (twenty-two years ago)

no one else likes cookies?

Chris 'The Velvet Bingo' V (Chris V), Friday, 28 May 2004 16:22 (twenty-two years ago)

I think peanut butter cookies might be my favorite.

MICROWAVED KEEBLER'S SOFT BATCH YOU HUSSIES.

Leee's a Simpson (Leee), Friday, 28 May 2004 16:24 (twenty-two years ago)

i loves me some SNICKERDOODLES!

mandee, Friday, 28 May 2004 16:25 (twenty-two years ago)

Mallomars are shorter, and don't have a hole in the center; pinwheels are higher/taller and are in ring shape. But they both fulfill the requirements stated above.

Note: from childhood memory, accuracy may be subjective.

I love those French cookies with the little schoolboy on em -- especially the "extra dark" chocolate variety. Can't remember what they're called, even though I bought some the other day...

Hurlothrumbo (hurlothrumbo), Friday, 28 May 2004 17:18 (twenty-two years ago)

the "Lu" cookies?

stockholm cindy (Jody Beth Rosen), Friday, 28 May 2004 17:23 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, that's them, I just googled and found 'em -- the specific ones are, I guess, called "Le Petit Ecolier".

Hurlothrumbo (hurlothrumbo), Friday, 28 May 2004 17:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Love the little schoolboys from LU. Somehow that doesn't sound right.

gabbneb (gabbneb), Friday, 28 May 2004 17:50 (twenty-two years ago)

mmm, I love the Le Petit Ecolier extra-dark. Chocolate-topped hob-nobs are freakin' amazing and I'm glad they're not available here b/c then I wouldn't be able to lose my winter waist. Ever. I should start long-distance running for the sake of hob-nobs and dark chocolate.

Le Petit Escolier avec hazelnut :)!!

I am a homemade oatmeal-raisin-walnut cookie guy, myself. I put cinnamon and a touch of nutmeg in them. They feel like actual food to my body when I make them and eat them. Especially good on 10 mile hikes.

Café downstairs at my workplace has a new(ish) range of large cookies sold out of jars near the till. Cannot remember the name of the maker, but they are £1.50 each! When I can get five-for-a-quid freshbaked from Tesco this feels like poor value...

Bill A, Wednesday, 19 January 2011 09:16 (fifteen years ago)

sainsbury's taste the difference white chocolate and raspberry cookies <3
