what's the copycat's name ?

@rotuts, based on @kayb's comment, I picked up these at Aldi yesterday:

And, to stay on-topic, I did indeed snack on a couple of them while eGulleting.  

They seemed to have a little less caramel & coconut than Samoas and the chocolate seemed sweeter and less chocolaty with an artificial vanilla smell but it's been years and years since I had the real thing so I might be completely wrong.  

Still, not a bad cookie to enjoy with a cuppa joe.  $1.39 for this package of 18 cookies.
