There was so much hype around the release of the new Oreo Brownie Batter cookies
that when I spotted them at my local Wal-Mart I popped a package in my
cart without even batting an eyelash. Truth be told, Oreo's are one of
my all time favorite cookies (the original being my favorite of them
all). Since I typically don't buy the original Oreo's I find myself
sampling the limited edition flavors since for some reason I can handle
those in portion sizes.
I had these bad boys
tucked away in the closet (out of sight out of mind). I decided to open
them up one day and I have to say ... I'm not really impressed. Opening
the package and giving the cookies a whiff, they have that brownie
batter scent (which truly, is just a chocolate smell). Taking a bite of
the cookie they really weren't wowing. They taste simply like a
chocolate Oreo cookie - chocolate cookie shell, chocolate cookie creme.
There may be a hint of brownie batter in the background ... but calling a
spade a spade these are merely a chocolate Oreo cookie. Now I've never
had the chocolate Oreo's they sell in stores so I can't compare the two
against each other in a flavor showdown - but I'd assume they're
different flavor categories. That assumption merely going on the fact I
have tried the peanut butter Oreo and the Reese peanut butter cup
Oreo's.
Overall I'd say these are alright ...
but they're certainly not something that I'd undoubtedly repurchase.
Truth be told, I'd probably skip on them if they were out for
consumption at anyone's house. They're a bit of a miss for me...
A serving is 2 cookies, 140 calories or 4 points plus values.
