"These are so close to the Girl Scout oatmeal peanut butter cookies that you won't know the difference!" says Joanne Reaney.

Reviewer passionfood adds, "These cookies are delicious and easy to make. The filling is so creamy and good, you could probably eat it by its self. If you want them chewier, bake for only 8-9 min. They are wonderful as is, but do get crunchy, if you like that. Anyway, all around very tasty recipe!"

There's only one bad thing about this sugar cookie recipe — it's so delicious people won't believe they're not from a bakery. They're easy to make and taste great, and you'll have much better luck rolling the dough out if you stash it in the freezer instead of the fridge.

Little Debbie who? These ultra-soft oatmeal cookies are already great on their own, but the sweet vanilla filling takes them to an entirely new level. For chewier cookies, undercook and flatten out with a fork after removing from the oven.

Thin Mint Cookies

"Unbelievable!" raves Allrecipes community member JENBON. "This tastes exactly like Thin Mints (Girl Scout version)! Just make sure you slice the cookies thin enough in order for them to harden. I changed the recipe a little by using Andes Creme De Menthe Chips (2 oz.) and Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips (1 oz.) for the coating. Also, I didn't chill mine as long as the recipe says to. I chilled for about 1 1/2 hours and then transferred to the freezer for the 30 minutes before baking. These are delicious and I will definitely make again!"

Recipe creator Abracadabra says, "I tried to combine recipes to come up with a cookie that tastes like Tate's Bake Shop cookies. The published Tate's recipe on YouTube does not taste like the cookies you buy in the store in the green bag. This is the closest I've come to simulating the oatmeal raisin flavor. This is not a thick cakey cookie but a thin, crisp, lighter version."
