A Cookie Within A Cookie?!

For those of you who don't know, I like to collect race medals, but firmly believe that the only way to get a medal is to earn it by completing a marathon, half-marathon and other running events.

"Why are you talking about running on a cupcake blog?" you ask.  Simple:  during one of my running adventures in San Francisco, I tasted one of the most delectable cookies ever made.  EVER.

First, let me just say that anything named Cookies & Cream is OK in my book, whether it's ice cream, cupcakes, ice cream...all of it.  So when I learned that the popular SF bakery Anthony's Cookies featured a cookie made with Oreos, I was all over it.

A "cookie within a cookie", the Cookies & Cream is just like a chocolate chip cookie - a little crunchy on the outside and chewy in the inside - but instead of chocolate chips, it is made out of crushed Oreos.  Uh-maz-ing.

I always make a trip to Anthony's Cookies when I'm in SF, but when I have an urge for a delicious cookie, I make my own version, which I have to admit is my current favorite treat and a popular choice among my favorite people.

If you've tried it (either my version or Anthony's Cookies), I'd love to hear about it!
