I give you Aachener Printen:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aachener_Printen
I'm absolutely addicted to these things. Sort of like a traditional lebkuchen, but with a different mouthfeel and ingredients like anise and honey. Oh man.
Stateside, have to admit I'm a Nutter Butter fan.

If I'm in a UA lounge, I'll always grab a Walker's shortbread. For Pepperidge Farm, Chessmen, though original Milano did it well too.
Lu comes to mind, as do various cookies in a Japanese convenience store.

Those Aachener Printen sound nice; beetroot is a main ingredient? Guess on my way to Lbeck and Wuppertal (eventually) I'll have to stop in Aachen too.

By the way, most of those bakeries in Aachen ship, so I always have them sent to my house. Of course, I live here in Germany. International would probably be prohibitive.

Laura Todd cookies, bought at Lafayette Gourmet in Paris. Unbelievably yummy.
Original site is in French, so this is the yelp page.

I'm a soft/chewy fan also. One of my favorites is Tiff's Treats here in Texas, and it is not just because I share a name with the owner. They deliver warm, straight from the over cookies, and they remind me of college.
