We made an impromptu stop at the "cookie mobile" while driving through town, and boy, we're glad we did. We bought one bag each of oatmeal cranberry and Russian tea cookies. These are distinctly different cookies, and both were delicious! I'm just sorry I live out of state.

My friend and I can't get enough of these cookies! Definitely a highlight of our road trip Telling the rest of our SOCAL friends to pay a visit to the cookie mobile. The Cowboy cookies were gone within minutes with no crumbs to spare. It was the perfect balance between nuts and chocolate.
