I was always a (my grandma and my mom) homemade raisin cookies guy, and then fell in love with soft molasses cookie and now my wife has swayed me towards the snickerdoodle... and those chocolate chip that @_WW_ 's wife made were great! The Gravel Lot cookie swap was great!

Good oatmeal raisin is definitely pretty high up my list
 
Ginger cookies made with fresh ginger, molasses and brown sugar crumbled over vanilla bean ice cream are my very favorites. For camping I make pineapple filled sugar cookies-they don't dry out and crumble like most other cookies.

Do you twist and split your Oreos and ever wondered why it splits the way it does (if you haven't, you don't think like a scientist)?

The mechanical experience of consumption (i.e., feel, softness, and texture) of many foods is intrinsic to their enjoyable consumption, one example being the ha

Do you dunk (my answer is NO!!!!), if yes, how long:

Physics takes the biscuit - Nature

Why did a light-hearted experiment attract so much attention from the media? The episode is an interesting lesson for those wanting to explain science to the wider public -- equations do not always scare people away.

Let's get off the dam Twitter thread and have some real fun. All opinions welcome.

Scrape the cream off with teeth, eat the wafer that had the cream, then the non cream side - only way to do it (except for all the others)!!

I am of the same Oreology school of thought process… exactly. We may have gone to the same alma mater. Dr. Kremecenter was my prof. We were lectured about the correct procedural intervention with Oreology especially when study was followed by the munchies.
 
I’m a big fan of oatmeal cookies with golden raisins.
Macaroons are high on the list as well because I like coconut.
Any cookies with walnuts will be high on my list. Same with Macadamia nuts.
In my younger age, I did some serious Oreo damage. Basically the cookie equivalent to Doritos when the munchies kicked in.

Curious how everyone feels about the various flavors of Oreos? Myself I was always a die hard double stuff guy. Many of the flavors they came out with were very appealing on the surface....Mint, PB etc. But they always came up short when I actually tried them.

For my money give me the plain old OG double stuffed every time.

Double stuff is the right amount of stuff.

Not really into any of the other flavors. However, I get down with vanilla creme filled biscoff cookies.
 
The proper approach to Oreo Doublestuff cookies is to take two from the package, unscrew the top wafer from each, consume said naked wafers, then join the remaining two creme-laden halves into one quadruplestuff cookie. Thence let it dissolve in your mouth, triggering an oral orgasm of hydrogenated chocolate-tinged creamy goodness.

Oreos, by the way, are poor substitutes for the original Hydrox cookie.
 
For those who dunk, what is your favorite dunking beverage? Milk is the classic and probably my most common with coffee a close second. Lately I have discovered oatmilk, also goid for dunking pbj sandwiches.

Then of course there is the Whippet, first produced in my hometown of Montreal in 1901 - as with the Oreo, there is ritual associated with the eating of a Whippet. The proper method of eating is a rather precise smack of the chocolate coating, creating fractures in the chocolate, chipping and pealing off all the chocolate, eating the chips as you go, sucking the marshmallow off the wafer, then down the hatch with the wafer - nothing could be finer:

While I love home made cookies, they are, in my opinion, just too good and wholesome to be included in this thread - we're talking junk here (but not junk science).

Cheers

My favorite cookie is my own oatmeal chocolate chip made with extra chocolate chips and double the butter. Literally melt in my mouth. You all will never know. I don’t think one cookie has made it out of the house and likely one never will.

Am I the only one who thinks chocolate chip cookies and amber ale beer were meant for each other?
 
I used to be all in for Pecan Sandies mostly because of the short bread flavor and feel but then they changed the formula to something that tastes like floor scrapings from a chemistry lab.
Now I'm a Walkers pure butter short bread man all the way.
