Soulstation1 Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 (edited) what are your favorite kinds of girl scout cookies? thin mints in the freezer are the best ss1 i did it all for the cookie................................. Edited February 17, 2004 by Soulstation1 Quote
Chrome Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 Coincidentally, I'm eating a frozen thin mint right now! Got two boxes yesterday and put 'em straight into the freeze. I wonder how much $$ they make on these things ... Quote
RainyDay Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 Oh gawd, I just lost 5 measly pounds and those bloody cookies will go on sale in two weeks. I can eat a half a box of thin mints in an instant. They sell them outside the grocery stores on Saturday mornings, everywhere. I'm doomed. Sigh. Quote
JSngry Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 Samoas. I can and do at them by the box. What I want to know is, if "chocolate cookies" are made out of chocolate, and "oatmeal cookies" are made out of oatmeal, then what are "Girl Scout cookies" made out of? Quote
RainyDay Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 Hmmm. In that context, they have a lot less yummy appeal. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 Just checking in to see if anyone had used the lame line about eating brownies yet... Quote
Chrome Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 Jazzmoose ... I have to admit, it was a close call ... but I managed to avoid temptation. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 Well, I'm glad; perhaps no one will bring it up! Quote
catesta Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 Well, I'm glad; perhaps no one will bring it up! I would rather eat some Little Debbie......., aw forget it. Quote
JSngry Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 I wonder if Little Debbie was ever a Girl Scout and got kicked out or something. You know, like Satan once being an angel in Heaven? Quote
catesta Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 It's no coincidence she ended up selling sweet treats herself. Quote
patricia Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 One of the most delightful surprises of my life was the day that I found out, having not bought Girl Guide cookies [that's what they're called here] for years, was that they weren't the fake Oreos and Vanilla sandwich cookies anymore. The thin mints are a sign that we were meant to have small pleasures. I love them too and have to limit myself to four per sitting, or I would eat the whole box. YUMMMMM!! Yes. By all means, freeze them first. Improves them immensely and the chocolate doesn't melt all over your fingers. AND you're helping one of the best service clubs for young girls. So, you're not just buying the cookies for your own pleasure, but for the greater good. Makes me feel almost virtuous, scarfin' them down. Quote
Guest Chaney Posted February 17, 2004 Report Posted February 17, 2004 While I like them all, Thin Mints are also my favorite but NOT from the freezer! Thin Mints should ONLY be eaten from the 'fridge. Freezing temperatures and chocolate aren't a good mix. Also good with a nice tall glass of buttermilk. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 What a bunch of silly boys. The real cookie is the trefoil (aka shortbread). They melt in the mouth with a nice butter/sugar flavor. At Thanksgiving we bought 6 boxes from our step-grand-daughter (is that a word?) and left them in Buffalo. Damn! Quote

Also good with a nice tall glass of buttermilk. Thank you Chaney. I guess I just got used to the freezer kind because that's where they are and the urge to eat one is intense. Fridge sounds better and easier on my teeth. Thank you. BTW, I hadn't thought of buttermilk as an accompanyment. Must try that. Speaking of cookies, CHUCK, I'll see your shortbread and raise you my three-chocolate, homemade marvels. They involve liquid chocolate, chocolate chips, cocoa and coconut. Moist and really chocolaty, they are to die for, though I do say so myself. Edited February 18, 2004 by patricia Quote

Please don't tell me you are still stuck with Detroit iron? . Seriously Patricia those cookies sound pretty good. Maybe you should introduce them into the Girl Scout mix . Until then I must vote for the thin mints. Quote

Thin mints are pretty good. These were a burst of divine creativity under pressure. I can barely cook, even at gunpoint and these cookies were accidentaly produced, one day when I had people coming over and nothing to offer them. They were surprisingly good, considering that I made them out of stuff I had around the house. To me, chocolate is a staple, much like milk, eggs and bread.:D Edited February 18, 2004 by patricia Quote
