    Whats a beloved cookie that seems to have disappeared over the years?

  • @koretechx1
    @koretechx1 Місяць тому +104

    Ding Dongs are cake, not cookies. And, they're still on the shelves at stores nation wide.
    Those were Magic Middles". That's a letter "L" in there. Giggles cookies we're a store bought brand and not made at home.
    Thumbprint cookies and wedding cookies are still made during the holidays and even some grocery store bakeries sell them.
    I'm sorry to sound so critical but good grief. So many videos from this channel give just inaccurate information. It's frustrating to those of us who grew up during the times you're talking about.

      Ding Dongs are also injected with fillng. The jos louis cake in Canada is similar but composed of two small cake layers. Do to the redish color of the cake customers insist they are red velvet cake when they aren't because they're not made with buttermilk and vinegar. I confirmed that with the manufacturer of Jos Lois.

      That's because they changed the original recipe in the 80s. They started using High fructose corn syrup and started adding preservatives to make them more shelf stable. Then when the new company took over they changed the recipe again.

    Magic Middies? really? They were Magic MIDDLES. The magic was the fact that the middle of the cookie was stuffed - peanut butter and chocolate mostly. Also, Ding Dongs weren't cookies - they were cream-filled snack cakes. Oh well, both were still tasty and contributed to early onset diabetes no matter what you called them. I miss them.

Make my own lemon coolers since they were one of my favorite cookies back when, and there was also an Archway iced molasses that went out of the marketplace that I make now. Stella Doro cookies are another one that left the stores. I think you can still get them online

    I have been making Spritz cookies since the early 70’s. People now think they are store bought since some have never seen them. Homemade cookies still are though the first choice when at potluck gatherings. I used to make batches during competitions that could last 12 hours and those I didn’t know would shyly ask for one. I made oatmeal chocolate chip but as bars rather than cookies. I have shared recipes with new neighbors who also introduced me to different types. Buckeye balls were given to me and seems to have been unpopular.

The company went out of business and sold the machine to Mother’s but they never made them.

    Hydrox cookies were infinitely better than oreos. My Gram always had those or chocolate wafers in her cookie jar no matter what time of year it was. My S.I.L and I still get together every winter to bake piles of cookies. Among them are lemon coolers, spritz with almond paste, not extract, and wedding cookies. Although we always called them tea cakes. We also make peanut butter thumbprints with with chocolate in the middle. Lastly, you have to have oatmeal with butterscotch chips.

    The iced animal cookies you can find at various 7/11s in the cookie section. However, it depends on if the manager chooses to stock them as part of their particular store. 7/11 now has a stricter policies where they only stock up on things that are in demand.

    Iced animal cookies are still around. Usually enrobed in pink or white “frosting” but they come out with seasonal ones. Red, green & white for Christmas. Red, white & blue for the Fourth of July.
    The wafer cookies are still available. They come in vanilla, strawberry & chocolate.
    Mexican wedding cookies are also called Russian tea cookies. Several countries have a variation on these.

    Anyone that can find a vintage Mirro Cookie Press in a thrift or antiques store nowadays that includes their recipe booklets can have great spritz! My mom made them every Christmas in pink and green holiday shapes. You could also decorate them with silver dragees back then before the ban of those! The thing was, once those are baked they are no longer hard and "tooth cracking"! She also always had to make Russian tea cakes because one of my brothers (only) liked them! As a kid I thought they were boring, but I once had some in a dessert shop with actual tea and I got why that combo works! There was also this recipe a neighbor gave her for cheesecake bars - that started with a pressed yellow cake base and a rich, baked cream cheese layer!

    Can anyone help find the name and any company info on a short-lived mass market cookie that had ‘sparklers’ in the name? I only saw them on shelf for July 4 in the mid-80s probably.
    A round plain vanilla shortbread sandwich cookie, multi color sprinkles baked in, a swirl pattern on top with vanilla crème filling. Very crunchy and had a definite baking soda heavy taste probably to make them seem sparkling. Sooo tasty yet I feel like I imagined them existing bc no one remembers!

    Ding gongs we’re not cookies, they did not have any cookies in them. At least, not when I was growing up. They were more like hostess cupcakes only a smaller profile & entirely enrobed in chocolate.
    Iced animal cookies are still around. Usually enrobed in pink or white “frosting” but they come out with seasonal ones. Red, green & white for Christmas. Red, white & blue for the Fourth of July.
    The wafer cookies are still available. They come in vanilla, strawberry & chocolate.
    Mexican wedding cookies are also called Russian tea cookies. Several countries have a variation on these.
