Overall Rating: 4.5/5
Summary: these cookies are one of my favourites! They are so much fresher than typical sandwich cookies -- the creme filling is soft and gooey as if it was just prepared, but not too gooey where it's messy. It's moist and very sweet! The cookie itself is also very fresh -- it's crunchy but not too crumbly. These are a regular in our pantry!

So, sure, these are one of the greatest cookies ever. However, the nutrition is so poor that I simply can't give it a solid 5/5. The ingredients aren't bad...but they don't really offer anything worth mentioning. It's pretty much just sugars and calories. But hey, at least there's no trans fats and cholesterol, right?
For only 2 cookies, the calories are pretty high...unless you can stick to 2 cookies per serving :P I can't imagine how that would be possible. I had 6 on Sunday...it was worth it.
These so unbelievably fresh...they taste like they are just out of the oven. They are definitely worth your time and money for an indulgent snack.
