Well, THAT is something completely different...
The raspberry ones were part of an assortment that has been discontinued, no sign of the powdered-sugar-dredged almond crescents either.
You can still mail order (unless you live on the west coast) See's wonderful toffee, but it's smaller pieces or balls in a can. It used to be large broken pieces in a regular-sized candy box with the generous and delicious toffee centers with nuts dipped in melted chocolate then English walnuts (I think). Hard no impossible to get good toffee these days and tricky to make as the butter separates easily. Don't have the patience for much anyway.
And I love Girl Scout Thin Mints. Who doesn't :-)!
Maybe I don’t go cookie shopping too much, but the iced down Keebler “grasshoppers” is good.
Our little Hispanic store sells these big, pretty boxes of assorted cookies that are nice - they’re the very cheap kind of cookies that always seem made with coconut oil, but nice because they aren’t real sweet.
Would love to find out what the cookies in your picture are.........they look wonderful
Lemon Coolers were a nice store cookie, too. I think one company has brought back a version of them.
I looked up your secret cookies. They would be good. Can't go wrong with butter and egg yolks enhance the flavor somehow. Offhand I can't think of a glass but should be able to find something. And they don't need to be rolled.
Keebler “grasshoppers and 8 Piece Reeses Peanutbutter cups in the freezer
I think I have 25 Teeth left!

They are the ‘Secret Cookies’ from Food52, in the last link of the post - they show them decorated different ways, and they use a jar with a patterned bottom to make the impression; but you can buy glass cookie stamps:

Hispanics never go nuts on dulce.
A lot of glass jars used to have that kind of pattern on the bottom; I don’t even think I have one in the house anymore, but you can get cookie stamps that make the same pattern. Or you might find one of the old jars at a thrift store.
“One year I made 200 cookies.”
I love doing Christmas cookies so I do that every year! Give them to family, friends, neighbors and co-workers.
All ready have about 9 dozen in the freezer. The standards. Oatmeal crasion, snicker doodles and chocolate chip. So I haven’t really started yet.
Lookin for new ones!
I’ve got about 2 cups of ground up, post Halloween, Butter Finger candy bar in the freezer. Any ideas?
Can you make Godiva brownie mix into a cookie? (Getting lazy in my old age. Lol!) I could sub the B.F. grounds for sugar. Gotta do some research. (Kinda doubt McGee covered this. Cooking nerds will get that comment.)
Thinking about making candies this year also. Suggestions appreciated, much.
Twenty-five of my teeth would have done me nicely. I did better with two biting teeth and whatever ones left I chewed with. Now I have to cut bite-sized pieces of burgers and sandwiches, McD's fish with extra tartar tonight. So I've not a real happy camper with my new top dentures. But without them, I couldn't chew at all. They hurt and come loose if I try to bite like I used to be able to. So take care of those twenty five teeth!
Speaking of Reeses, I get to craving the snack size, sometimes really pig out on a bag; other times a bag will last me quite awhile. I know they're all made of the same ingredients, but only the snack size ones will satisfy me.
thank you
Thanks. I’ll check around here first, have tons of older stuff. And have a couple cookie stamps. But I’ll be honest, they look really good but there are others with a higher priority if I get the ambition to bake cookies.
I hand out the full sized ones every payday Frozen, and everyone likes that
Archway is still around according to their website but I haven’t seen the either.
its about enjoying life and laughing at it
