BROOKIE COOKIE Creme Pies Yum! review and giveawa

BROOKIE COOKIE is a cookie brand that’s fairly new. The original BROOKIE COOKIE product looked like a cookie but tasted like a brownie. Since the original BROOKIE COOKIE the company itself had added a number of tasty gourmet products to the line up. They are made in Brooklyn, NY but can be shipped all over the US by ordering on their website www.thebrookiecookie.com .

One of their products that I had the pleasure of trying is the BROOKIE COOKIE Creme Pie.

The Creme Pie consists of two BROOKIE COOKIE double chocolate cookies with vanilla creme between them. Just looking at the product itself you can see the texture of the cookies. Not too thick, not too thin. The cookies are more of a crunchy cookie compared to, say, a soft bake or chewy cookie. I took a bite out of the creme pie. The vanilla cream was very smooth and didn’t overwhelm the whole pie. The crunch of the cookie with the texture of the smooth vanilla creme added to the pleasure eating this delicious treat.

The chocolate taste was amazing. I’ll be honest, I only got one and I intended to split it with my youngest who was occupied with the TV. He didn’t even know I had it. After I took a bite I thought, Ok sorry there is no way I’m sharing this. You can sort of see the rougher texture of the cookie in the above picture. Very very tasty.

I also wanted to share that their BROOKIE COOKIES are natural gourmet products. No harsh additives or preservatives, cage free eggs are used, only unbleached flour and no food colorings or dyes. They have nice gift boxes too to make these a fun an appreciated treat for Halloween or the upcoming holidays.

Besides the website, you can also find BROOKIE COOKIE on facebook: http://www.facebook.com/thebrookiecookies
and on twitter: @thbrookiecookie

Ok did I make you hungry yet? Wanna chance to try the BROOKIE COOKIE Creme Pie for yourself?
