Hello fellow Trader Joe's (and cookie) lovers!!!
Today, kiddo and I are reviewing the Dark Chocolate Chunk and Almond Cookies. Trader Joe's describes these as "...all butter, crispy cookies...made with lots of dark chocolate chunks and California almond pieces."
A tub (don't you love buying desserts by the tub?) will set you back $3.99. There about about 36 little cookies in each container.
My take: As soon as I spied these in TJ's, I thought, "well, I'll polish those off in about 24 hours." I didn't love them, though. I can't say I taste much almond in these, but they are crunchy. If you're a cookie/milk dunker, you might like them a little more.
Overall rating: 3 of 5 stars
Kiddo's Take: One word: addictive. The enjoyable crunchiness and perfect amount of almond flavor are often interrupted by pops of delectable sweetness from the not-too-dark, yet not-too-milky, chocolate chunks. I could definitely polish these off in less than 24 hours. Beat that, Mom.
Overall rating: 5 of 5 stars
