What do you think is the best packaged gourmet cookie?
Comments (41)for those who love ginger, TJ's has a new "Organic" ginger cookie. They're small and ultra crisp, but have a great bite! DH sent me out to stock up in case they discontinue them! My favorites are Milano's mint and dark chocolate, Thin Mints and Mrs. Fields Chocolate Covered Graham Crackers! Odd choice I know, but I love dark chocolate and I really like ginger!...See MoreNeed new christmas candy/?? idea

Put another layer of crackers and pour the remaining mixture. Add one last row of cracker. In microwave melt butterscotch chips, chocolate chips and peanut butter together I stirred every 1 (one) minute til nice and smooth. When melted, spread evenly over the top.

Comments (71)Grainlady, do you taste the banana or coconut oil in your cookies? I haven't been able to put a banana in my mouth for years, don't even like the smell. And detest the smell and taste of coconut. I do use a tiny bit of coconut oil for DH's eggs sometimes, but even that can be too much if I am not careful. Mom used to make the chocolate Pixies at Christmas every year! Loved them. My kids didn't like them, so I quit making them years ago. Linda, thank you for your recipe. My favorite cookie depends on the time of year. Any time of year would be soft chewy chocolate chip, or oatmeal cinnamon chip or oatmeal chocolate chip. At Christmas, my aunt's ginger cookies, grandma's BonBons (not a candy), candy cane (without the peppermint). Used to be the Mexican Tea Cakes, very similar to Marilyn's cookie, until I made myself sick on them the first year we were married. DH likes them, but didn't eat any for some reason that year, and I ate the whole batch! Not all at once of course, but still too many. Now I can't eat the nuts. I love the Kiffles, or as DH's mom called them, Kolachkies, also. I didn't have much luck making those, tho. The Mexican Tea Cakes and the candy cane cookies, and the pixies, were the only ones Mom only made at Christmas. Grandma kept the Bon Bons made year round and in the freezer. Every time we came, she would get a box out of the freezer for us to eat. I turned them into Christmas cookies because I would eat them all, all the time!...See Morerachelellen
