Little Debbie can help with your Girl Scout cookie obsession

Little Debbie cookiesOnce a year the Girl Scouts are unleashed on the world and ask us if we want to buy some of their cookies. As if we could even try to exist without their shortbread and minty chocolate wafers.

My favorite has always been the Samoa. Chocolate and caramel and coconut...wow, I used to eat an entire box in one sitting. But then like all addicts I'd want more and want to sell anything I could just to get a few more in my mouth. What can a person do if they love Samoas and they vanish for another year?

Little Debbie to the rescue!




They make a cookie called German Chocolate Cookie Rings which are pretty much the same as Samoas. I haven't seen them at my supermarket in a while, but the Little Debbie web site above says they are still available. Edy's also used to make a Samoa Cookie ice cream which was pretty damn good too, though I'm not sure if they still make that since I haven't had ice cream all winter.

Does Little Debbie (or any other company) make a cookie that is comparable to other Girl Scout cookie flavors?
