cookies!

It's girl scout cookie time! Huzzah! I ordered my samoas and tagalongs (or whatever name they're going by this year) yesterday.


In celebration, here's a best cookies in the world post. First off these petit ecolier cookies are incredible. Like most things with chocolate, I like them best refrigerated. The package claims they're made in France and they're "European biscuits", but really they're just a butter cookie with a hunk of chocolate on top. It's a smore without the marshmallow and they're terribly addictive.
I feel sorry for the person nibbling that cookie on the cover of the box. They can't even cookie right.

Walker's shortbread cookies are from overseas too. The box says Scotland. There are four ingredients in this cookie: flour, sugar, butter, and salt and I think that's part of what makes them so good. They're simple; they're extraordinary.



I have no idea what makes a Persian cookie different from any other kind of cookie, but there was a guy at work who would bring in Persian cookies from a nearby bakery whenever we had a celebration and he started bringing me a secret side stash because I became so addicted to them.

I could eat an entire bag of Keebler's iced animal cookies in a sitting, so I think my local grocery stores did me a favor by no longer carrying them. I know I could just buy some off of Amazon, but maybe it's better this way.
