^ Made with REAL Pecans!

Like it's great selling feature for food to be made with real food.

Please name a non trashy dessert you use Oreos to "bake" with.


Oreo macaron




Except those don’t look like they’re even made with Oreos. I suppose if all you do is sprinkle the tiniest bit of Oreo crumb on top of a macaroon that wouldn’t be enough to ruin it.


Sure - it's in the buttercream and the shells. Some recipes use more Oreos than others.

Here's another version:




You don't have to like it, but it is a "non-trashy dessert that uses Oreos", as requested.

I don’t really like the Lofthouse cookies, BUT one time we were visiting my mom in AZ and they had a chocolate mint version of them—I think it was a different brand. The cookie part was chocolate and it had green mint frosting and chocolate sprinkles. They were so so good, but I’ve never seen them again.

I posted earlier re chips ahoy but I had forgotten about those Sandies. They really are the worst. And those styrofoam rectangles are also pretty bad.

I had never had one of those lofthouse cookies until some kids’ class party....I was totally repulsed by them but they are also weirdly delicious and addictive.

girl scout cookies. all of them. they are using poor quality ingredients. the ones from 20 years ago were delicious.

I feel bad for my sons’ generation and the sheer volume of Lofthouse cookies they are offered because it’s one of the few peanut and tree nut allergy safe options.


That's weird - I haven't seen them at any parties. Haven't seen them in 30 years!

+1 I don't understand why people like these, I actually don't know anyone who eats these except for kids.

You should try Birthday cake Oreos!


I just want to buy the cookie, minus the stuff. Why can’t they sell this??


Just tried maple oreos. Not bad. I buy store bought cookies maybe 2x per year. Often Pepperidge Farm

Don't know how old your son is, but my kids (11 and 14) LOVE Lofthouse cookies, and all of their friends seem to like them too. I find them a bit too sweet, but they are far from the worst. I actually don't mind most of the ones mentioned here, but fig newtons and pecan sandies are both horribly gross. And sadly, most girl scout cookies are gross now too. They used to be tasty, now they just taste like wax.

Trader Joe's Fig Bites aren't bad


I haven’t tried those but like a lot of TJ’s versions so I will have to try them. My favorite healthier version are Nature’s Bakery. They make fig ones and other flavors as well. The outside “cookie” part are thicker and “whole wheatier” which I’d imagine not everyone is a fan of, but everyone in our house loves them.


I LOVE NATURE'S BAKERY FIG BARS. The raspberry is my favorite.

My family likes these too but I think they are more in the Nutrigrain Bar category than cookie. Maybe just based on where they are sold in the store.

Snackwells taste super fake and chemically to me.

We took a vote and were 3-1 Fig Newtons are the worst cookies. The outlier voted for Nutter Butters, which caused a recount. Nutter Butters are also gross. What say you, DCUM? What is the worst cookie?


"Have another nutter butter peanut butter sandwich cookie!"
