Regarding this, what cookies are most like Samoas?
Samoas — along with Trefoils, Thin Mints, and Do-Si-Dos — were introduced back in 1974 for Girl Scouts by Little Brownie Bakers, one of two U.S. bakeries with whom local councils have the option to work. The other bakery, ABC Bakers, produces a similar (but decidedly not the same) cookie called Caramel deLites.

Is Si Dos better than Nutter Butter?
Do-Si-Dos

Are caramel Delights and Samoas the same?
Samoas are the more flavorful of the two, using a dark chocolate coating and a heavy caramel layer along with more toasted coconut.

Why did Girl Scout cookies change their name?
