lip smacking treats

I was out in the local grocery store the other day and spooted Nabisco’s Oreo Cakesters on the shelf emblazoned with the word “New” across the front. Being that I’m a huge Oreo fan, and sometimes (well, too often) a sucker for the word “New”. I stood there and tried to decide if the Oreo Cakesters or the Nilla Wafer Cakesters would be what I would try.

They looked soooo very good!

But, time was pressing and I needed to go. So I vowed to find an Oreo Cakesters Coupon and return! Soon, I was in the store again, but without a coupon, and found myself compelled to try these! So I bit and brought a box home.

First, they look like larger oreo cookies that are puffed up. They are extremely soft and oh so very yummy! Since they described them as “cakesters” I thought it was more of a cake type treat that looks like an Oreo. But it tasted like the cookie! Just not crunchy!

Wow… Very good! I have to say that Nabisco did a great job on these. My drawbacks, and there aren’t but these two, is that they aren’t cheap for the quantity of cookies you get. You basically get 6 servings, 2 cookies per serving. They are sealed in these light-proof-air-tight bags to keep them fresh. And they were fresh. My other beef is with the calorie content! 250 calories from two little cookies? Wow!

So soft. So chewy. So Oreo-Goodnessy! I will be having these guys again! Sadly, though, I don’t think this makes it to the “everyday” list of treats. But, I guess that is the nature of treats, something you give yourself every now and again. So in that definition of them, then I guess they are a success — something that perhaps once every other month of so will be a very welcome “treat”! Try them, you’ll enjoy!

And if you read this blog, nfdaughter’s journal blog, you’ll see her suggestion for putting them in the freezer! Wow … sounds good! I (sadly) had run out before I read that!
