As I was shopping for the children’s school lunch items at the store, I decided to head down the cookie aisle to try something new and fun for a change. As luck would have it, there were several Nabisco brands on sale for $1.99 a box which included several different varieties of the Chips Ahoy! Label. I decided on the White fudge chunk cookies as they looked like a fun alternative to the usual chocolate chip cookie.
Taste
Our first taste test occurred well before the kids went back to school with their brown bag lunches as we decided to try them out following a scrumptious Saturday lunch. The first bite revealed a very crispy butter cookie with decent portions of semi sweet chocolate chunks and little morsels of the white fudge. The combination of flavors was a winner as everyone had no problems knocking down two of these cookies and anxious for a third. I could have easily consumed about a half dozen of these cookies if it was not for each cookie totaling eighty calories. These Nabisco treats actually tasted much better than the original run of the mill Chips Ahoy chocolate chip cookie. The real attraction with this cookie was the presence of a buttery crispy exterior than reminded me of the reputable Pepperidge Farm Sausalito or Keebler Pecan Sandies cookies. The Nabisco bakery did a good job ensuring every cookie had a decent amount of chocolate and white fudge in every bite.
Quantity
Each package of Nabisco White Fudge Chunk cookies contains fourteen ounces of cookies. One package of cookies will last maybe a few days with families that have younger children. Teenage children and adults with no will power will most likely finish of a package of these in one day. If planning on purchasing these cookies as strictly a school lunch item, most households will go through a package in about a week.
Price
This regular price for a package of Nabisco Chips Ahoy White Fudge cookies is listed at $3.49 at my local supermarket. I was fortunate to buy a package at the sale price of just below two dollars. After sampling the first cookie, I felt remorseful that I did not buy another package or two given the tremendous savings.
Overall Opinion
The fact that the top of the package has a convenient re-sealable opening is another strong reason to consider purchasing these cookies. Still, I would recommend these cookies as an average buy at best. I think the regular price is pretty extreme and would consider buying this only when it goes on sale again.
