Mine is the debatable world of wagon wheels! is it a biscuit, is it a cake, is just a strange chocolate thing???? it's a round circle of chocolate with two sliced of a sort of soft biscuityness inside with marsh mallow inside, it's in the biscuit aisle at supermarkets - does that make it a biscuit.

failing that a nice chocolate digestive!!

what about you girls???

Favorite homemade - snickerdoodles! (so yummy)

And favorite storebought - at home - Chips Ahoy Chocolate Chip cookies & in Ireland - either Ginger nuts or Hob Nobs (chocolate ones, not plain!)

(but i'm really a brownie girl...)

Mmmn, I do agree that the wagon wheel is quite delicious. I'm also a big fan of the tim tam, a chocolaty biscuity wonder that is unique to Australia (though it's quite similar to a UK penguin biscuit).

Hands down though..ashamed as I am to admit it... subway: white choc chip and macadamia. Oh, be still my beating arteries. What IS it about trans fats and sugar that tastes so so very good!?!?!

I had some really great biscuits when I was in the UK and I bought some and brought them home! But i don't remember much about them now--it was awhile back! I like that biscuits aren't as sugary sweet as cookies sometimes.

I also like those layered vanilla wafer type cookies (not the Nilla Wafers--the ones grandpa always had around!) and anything freshly baked for the most part.

Peanut butter oatmeal chocolate chip for me; FI loves mint milanos best (he really will eat the whole package in one sitting). I made a batch of these amazing, chewy, black forest cookies recently, though, and they were pretty fabulous!

wow i really want to try a wagon wheel! :)

My fav are neiman marcus cookies but they're a huge pain in the butt to make so i don't get them often! other than those, i'd say straight up homemade chocolate chip

I like soooooo many cookies and have been called a cookie monster by many people. So I don't know my favorite but I do know I prefer them soft and chewy!

Harder cookies arent' my favorite - unless they have like a fudgy or somehow soft center or are like the italian cookies which are good for dipping in coffee

My first instinct here is to say chocolate chip but after I have 2 or 3 of those, I sorta overdose on it. So I say butter cookies, the ones in the metal tins that sell at the drug stores. I can eat those all day long.

Also Arnott's Tim Tams but I haven't seen them here...

Oh my goodness, so I was just thinking about this more, I know what mine is but I don't know the name. You take like those buttery wafers and marshmellows and cover them in this espresso tasting chocolate - it's like a tiramisu in cookie form. I love them and want one right now.

My store-bought favourite is by far PiM's Orange Chocolate cookies. They're expensive so they're reserved for special occasions haha, but seriously. AMAZING. They're like little pieces of cookie/chocolate/cake (:

I basically love anything homemade too, especially shortbread cookies (: yumm

I love Girl Scout cookies - Tagalogs, Samoas, and Thin Mints (from the freezer). I also love the famous NY Times chocolate chip cookies...seriously, they are amazing! I made the dough last night but can't bake them until tomorrow...36 hour rule :)

@vicarswifeintraining:My FI's a proud Brit so I've tried Penguins and tried hard to like them...but they're just not as good! not sure if it's the chcolate coating or if the biscuit's not substantial enough - might have to do some more research :)
