Girl Scout cookies bite my heart
Ever since I was five, sweets have always been my favorite food, more specifically cookies. Girl Scout cookies were first introduced into my life during my elementary school years, and looking back as a senior in high school, I can say with confidence they remain my favorite brand of cookies.
As the cookie-selling season for Girl Scouts runs from January through April, I have plenty of time to stock up and enjoy my favorite treat. Lemonades, Samoas and Thin Mints are three staples in the Girl Scout cookie chain and are my go-tos when I have an opportunity to get my hands on some.
First off, Lemonades bring the perfect balance between tangy and sweet, giving the cookies a “kill two birds with one stone” nature. These cookies are my number one and are not only appetite pleasing, but provide a cute imprint of a face of a lemon on the top. I love being able to crunch into these perfectly sized cookies to satisfy my sugar cravings.
One of the next best Girl Scout cookies is the Samoas. With the caramel, chocolate and coconut shave coating, these cookies have the ideal balance of sweet and savory. These cookies taste delicious alongside a glass of milk and compliment every snack or meal I eat.
Thin Mints are probably the most iconic and well-known Girl Scout cookie out there. Their simplicity allows people who eat the cookie to focus on the minty crunch, as well as the thin layer of delicious chocolate. Thin Mints are light and do not weigh down on you after you eat them, so every cookie you can walk away guilt free. Along with being a fan favorite, these cookies have been a primary factor in helping young girls learn money management and social interaction skills.
Girl Scout cookies can be eaten on various occasions, such as with friends, while doing homework or as an evening treat while binging your favorite movie. I love how consistent the Girl Scout cookies are in that each year I buy them, I can always purchase my favorites without worrying about them running off the menu. I have grown up with these cookies, and am looking forward to eating the Lemonades, Samoas and Thin Mints for the rest of my life.
