Oreo Cookie Cookies

An oreo is a cookie. An oreo in a cookie?

Seriously people; genius pure genius. I'm loving these new batch of interesting kitschy cookies and cakes that I've been seeing lately; they make me really, really happy. Basically this cookie is good... and large! As if good wasn't good enough (haha) but they are LARGE and good, double score!

These are choc full of cookie goodness, chewy interior, crispy interior and gooey chocolate. Really what more could you ask for. Although these babies are yummy, I must say, I don't think I'll ever find cookies as good as these two: here and here. Mmmm cookies.
