Top 5 Grocery Store Cookies

1. Trader Joes 100 Calorie Pack Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies- In an attempt to limit the amount of sweets I consume, a couple years ago I found these 100 calorie packs at Tj's. Little did I know I'd be so addicted to these crunchy little morsels of oatmeal cookie goodness for years to come. I used to be able to just have one pack, but now I pretty much eat a whole box of them in one day. No self control.

2. Biscoff biscuit cookies- I first discovered these gems while on a Delta flight. I guess they are exclusively offered in little packages on that airline. They are so mouth wateringly delicious, I'd almost book a flight on Delta just to have them! But that's not necessary because you can buy them in almost any grocery chain. They are the epitome of the perfect cinnamon-brown sugar-buttery cookie/biscuit.

3. Trader Joes Cat Cookies- These come in a HUGE round bucket. There are a variety of flavors of Cat cookies including ginger, chocolate, and original-which are basically cinnamon flavored. I'm a huge fan of the original. I love anything crunchy and anything cinnamon so these are a perfect choice! They are great for snacking because they are kind of closer to an animal cracker, so less sugar!

4. Fudge Shop Striped Cookies-Because the original are pretty high in calorie-I tend to go for the 100 calorie pack version of these amazing fudge striped cookies. These were a fave of mine since child hood. I don't know what makes them so special but they just rock!

5. Girl Scouts Samoa Cookies- Okay, okay, I know these aren't quite sold in grocery stores. But I'm still going to count them because they are mass produced/manufactured. Some stores in certain regions do sell them year round! Just not in LA unfortunately. But when March comes around you bet I'm out there looking for the girl scout stands just to get my hands on these. To those who don't know, it's a cookie like none other. A buttery biscuit smothered in caramel dipped in dark chocolate then sprinkled w/ toasted coconut and drizzled with more chocolate. Okay, I just drooled a bit.
