Hello blog viewers! I am going to bring you a special review today on the Truly Awesome Homestyle Chocolate Chip Cookies from Kroger (and stores alike). The privilege of being a BzzAgent has successfully turned me on to a new dessert! Let's face it, who doesn't like cookies, especially ones that taste like they came from your own oven!
I was so excited to get accepted into this campaign through BzzAgent! I love to bake, unfortunately...baking does NOT love me. I truly believe in my heart (maybe i'm wrong) but cookies are the hardest sweet to bake. They are either to hard, to burnt, not done, falling apart, not enough chocolate chips, and the list can go on and on. If your like me, eventually you take the long walk down the cookie aisle. I have bought tons of packaged cookies. Some were good, some okay, and others were just plain out horrible. When I received my BzzKit in the mail, I was STARVING (which is bad news for everyone around). I studied the box for a few minutes, checking the nutritional information and ingredients. The packaging is very attractive. The information is not cluttered and the picture displayed is very life like to what is inside. You get EIGHT yummy cookies in each package. The cookies are supposed to be somewhat larger than the "normal" packaged cookies. I didn't really notice a whole lot of a difference in size, but they were a great serving! They come in the foil like wrapper to keep the freshness in. I examined the cookie like some kind of detective, not necessarily to COUNT the chocolate chips but to see how evenly spread they were. I must say the amount of chocolate was just right. You got at least one chocolate chip in every bite. They have some nice and easy little recipes on the back of things you can do with the cookies. I tested some of those out, but before that I just HAD to eat a cookie, or two...
These cookies are delicious! If you were to follow like the directions say on the box, and put them in the microwave for a little bit I guarantee people would think you whipped these right up! The flavor is incredible, and the texture is just as great. When you bite into the cookie the crunch is just right. I have had some cookies that are SO crunchy when i'm done eating them my mouth is raw. I had a slight problem with sharing them, but I did finally agree that my family could have some. :). My fiance's EXACT words were "Oh man, and where do they sell these at? We need to stock up!" He found himself another true love! My 4 year old twin nieces loved them as well...which most kids would, but even they said they wanted their mommy to have a coupon for some of these cookies.
Some fun uses I used from the box
I did save enough cookies to make a couple of ice cream sandwiches. I let the ice cream soften enough to be able to scoop on the cookies. I used one big ice cream scoop of vanilla, evened it out a little if needed, then placed my other cookie on top. I wrapped some plastic wrap around them and stuck them in the freezer for about an hour. We had these after dinner, the first bite I took my cookie began to crumble so I did end up eating with a spoon. It was still very delicious although the cookie became like a rock! Be careful on this one and vary freezing time if needed.
All in all, I think these cookies get a 5 out of 5 star rating from me! The price is great for the quality of the cookies, and the whole family will be thanking you for coming home with these! Check out your local Kroger (or store alike) and pick some up. Also be sure and check out BzzAgent.com. You to could be trying great products with me!
