With CA there's the risk of over saturation causing the cookie to fall into the milk. So, if you like a challenge, CA is the cookie for you. If you like to play it safe, stick to Oreos.

Oreos are the better sit-and-eat cookie. They're good with a glass of milk. Chips Ahoy are a little on the dry side to just sit and eat.

But Chips Ahoy are the better dunking cookie because they retain more milk, and the flavors of the milk and cookie combine to create a richer, more interesting, ultimately more satisfying snack experience.

Homeschoolmom points out the real danger of over-saturating a Chips Ahoy and having the cookie fall into the glass of milk. I would simply remind folks that dunking is an [i]art[/i]. It is not a game for amateurs. But once you catch the knack...

Chips Ahoy are kind of dry but they're good. I like Oreos better though.

Eating w/o dunking they are equal. But when dunking, Oreos don't take in the milk, which for me is the whole point of dunking.

I'm probably the only person on earth who doesn't like Oreos. What can I say? It's my fate never to be like anyone else. (I don't think I really believe in "fate," but it was a nice word for the sentence.) I seriously dislike Chips Ahoy.

Milk is "Meh."

However, I thoroughly approve of cookies in general as one of the basic food groups, just not Oreos or Chips Ahoy. My favorite cookies are my own variation on "Auntie's Heart Attack Cookies"--guaranteed to fill your yearly requirement of cholesterol, fat, and sugar in just one medium cookie.

I do like milk when mixed with chocolate. Also, milk in the form of cream goes with almost anything, such as Kahlua and Bailey's, to name two. Or Irish coffee if you have to stay awake (but drunk). "Auntie's Heart Attack Cookies" substitute cream for milk. Cream on cereal is good, too. You cram more cholesterol and fat into your daily diet if you start the day with cream on your cereal, cream in your tea, and cream on your strawberries. Whipped cream with fresh strawberries is amesome on pancakes.

My legs have huge bruises from kicking myself so hard for going to bed early last night and missing all the fun. The nights I DO stay up, people only want to talk about heresies I've never heard of, and I just want to say, "Okay, let's all agree, the Albigensians were wrong, and now let's talk about something where I can take part in the conversation." Lest you think I am showing off--I had to look up "Albigensian" in the dictionary, and may have the spelling wrong anyway, and I don't really remember what they thought, and please feel free to refrain from reminding me, they're dead anyway, so they won't be coming to my door to try to convert me. I pinky finger promise not to believe Albigensianism, whatever it was, because no one expects the Spanish Inquisition, and I looked that up too, because I know almost nothing about the Spanish inquisition except from Monty Python, because I hardly remember anything I learned in college, except that it's wrong to laugh if the guy wants to start your date with prayer--even then I was a really bad non-Catholic Christian. But, that's another thread.

The few brain cells I had left have have melted in the Midwest heat wave, so please do not expect clarity (or conciseness) from me today. I remember how to use the keyboard and where the cold drinks are, and that may be all anyone can expect from me today.

Considering I've never eaten Chips Ahoy, my answer is pretty obvious.

I always love your posts, but there is something even more wonderful about someone who can write such a detailed post about cookies :love:

Thank-you! The fact that you like the post may be an indication that you are just a bit odd or that you are a Brit. There is nothing wrong with either condition, quite the opposite, in fact.

When I reread my post before pushing "go," I decided the post was like one of those "pencil and paper" games--"Write something of no less than 200 words that contains the words/phrases "Chips Ahoy," "bruises," "Kahlua," and "Albigensian." What you write must make at least a small amount of sense to the judges, who are allowed to partake of alcoholic beverages before judging, provided they are of legal drinking age in their country of residence." (Tough for U.S. Phatmassers under 21.) :joecool:
