Caprice!!!!! CAPRICE!!!!!!!!!!!!! If I''m not paying attention, I can EASILY eat a can in an hour. Easily.

Those pirouette guys will do in a pinch, because it can be hard to find these guys (LA has been better than my hometown, though), but my true love is for Caprice. The hazelnut/praline flavor. Ohhh man.

I haven''t had any in at least a year and a half!

Oh, my caprice, how I love thee!!!

Tim Tams. Fortunately, difficult (if not impossible) to get in the States, for which my waistline is very grateful. (if you know how to get them, please don''t tell me - its really better I don''t know...)

I have loved Oreos since I was little, and they are still my favorite store bought cookies.
Pepperidge Farms Brussels are also yummy

Girl Scout Cookies!!! Thin Mints or Carmel Delights!!! I can eat a whole box of Thin Mints.

When I was a little girl I went to England and fell in love with Pimm''s Raspberry Chocolate Biscuits. Those still remind me of that vacation. The only place in the U.S. I''ve seen them is Minneapolis which is 4 hours away from me. So those are my "special occasion" cookies.

The Trader Joe''s oreos (I think they are called Joe Joes) with the chocolate centers that are like frosting. And, they have no partially hydrogenated oils like real oreos. Yay. Dipped in milk, superb. I almost never buy these though. Cannot have them in the house.
OMG! did you try the ones during the holidays with PEPPERMINT filling! they were delightful :D

Mine is Pepperidge Farm Chessmen. Oh man. I can go through a pack a day. Yummo.

They were on sale buy one get one free a couple of weeks ago. That was a dark day.

What's your favorite cookie... you know the one you WANT to buy, but don't dare to except as a real treat.
Oh. My. God. YES!!!!!!!!!!!

DH bought me the 'variety pack' a couple of weeks ago; his reasoning being that we shouldn't 'deny' ourselves a treat, and "look, honey, 3 cookies are only X calories!" As if you could stop at three. I believe my Chessmen are all eaten. I DID NOT share those with DH.

I used to LOVE Keebler french vanilla sandwich cookies (they look like oreos but they''re white)...sadly, I don''t think they make them anymore because I haven''t been able to find them for years now. I also love their vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate flavored sugar wafer cookies! My favorite PF cookies are the ones that have a layer of chocolate and a sprinkling of nuts, I have no idea what they are called...I always filch them from the entertainment box my mother buys. Other than that I like the store-bought sugar cookies with like an inch of buttercream frosting and sprinkles, but very occasionally because once I have two bites I remember that they don''t taste as good as they look!
And those are my next fav PF cookies -- the chocolate dipped shortbread with nuts!

Oh dear, where are those Girl Scout cookies? I know they''re in my desk somewhere . . . . . must have a cookie now . . . .

No, I didn''t, but I will have to try them next year!! I did try the vanilla recently, and fortunately, I did not love them as much. I think they have peanut butter too!

white fudge covered oreos, they only have them in the winter and they are amazing

LOVE fudge covered oreos. All the threads with oreos in them lately has really made me crave them... and I haven''t eaten an oreo in years!

Only half a box of Samoas in an afternoon? Please. I could eat the entire box in one sitting...and then I could eat a whole tube of Thin Mints, too!

Those are my absolute FAVORITE GS cookies! In fact, I just ordered 4 boxes of Samoas and 2 boxes of Thin Mints from my sister''s coworker! (Last year I did 4 Thin Mints and 2 Samoas but I realized I like Samoas more than Thin Mints so I switched it!)

Amber they are good, especially when you drink coffee through them OMG

Harriet posted a site that sells them in the US a while back but OMG they were expensive considering we only pay like $2AUD a box for them here.

OMG I like Pimm''s too - both the raspberry and the orange flavor. I''ve seen them in the supermarkets out here (San Francisco) but I can''t keep them in the house - too dangerous!

OMG a whole world of cookies is openning up for me... this is not good.

I love the girlscouts thin mints and shortbreads.

The other PF cookies I like are the Bordeux (spelling).

Holly... LMAO, John doesn't even TRY to get a Chessmen. His favorite it the Milanos and the Mint Milanos so it all works out though.

Has anyone tried the wafer chocolate things they have in BAGS (little squares like the inside of a kit kat)... those in dark chocolate were put on earth by demons. They are my first temptation when I want something chocolatey and crunchy. Soooo freaking good.

For the Tim Tam lovers (to threadjack a little) do you recommend the original? The double chocolate? The caramel? Or all?
