*I don’t get paid for my opinions in any way; this is just me sharing stuff that I like and I think you will too.
Shopping at Whole Foods this week I was attracted to this stand-alone cooler in the frozen food section. It could have been that I was hungry for cookies or the big yellow sale sign got my attention, but I was intrigued enough to stop and read some more.
What I learned is that Immaculate Baking uses no trans fat, no high fructose corn syrup and only all natural ingredients in their cookie dough. Now, although I am not a big fan of pre-made cookie dough as they all have an “fake” taste to me, and I have yet to find a tasty healthy cookie, I decided to try these cookies at home with my own cookie monsters. I bought 2 packages for $8: Cranberry Oatmeal White Chocolate and Triple Chocolate. Each package makes 24 cookies. The dough is already scored for each individual cookie and therefore easy to bake as many or little as you want at one time. My family wanted to taste the cookies right away (naturally), so after dinner I made 8 of the Cranberry Oatmeal White Chocolate according to the directions on the package.
14 minutes later (plus cooling time) we were enjoying some really delicious cookies! No, FOR REALS! They were fresh and clean-tasting (no nasty “fake” taste), the perfect consistency, and very flavorful; they were as good as (if not better than) freshly made bakery cookies. Everyone in my family gave the cookies an enthusiastic 2 thumbs up! I normally do not like oatmeal in my cookies, but I love these; oatmeal, cranberries and white chocolate turned out to be a winning combination. With the holidays upon us, it is always good to have a quick snack in the freezer like this cookie dough for unexpected guests. A fresh warm plate of cookies and some hot apple cider (also easy to keep on-hand) makes for a very welcoming house. We can’t wait to try the Triple Chocolate cookies!
*Update: We tried the Triple Chocolate and they were just as good as the Cranberry White Chocolate–delicious! I have also found that my oven bakes them best for 13 minutes. They will look puffy and not all the way done when you take them out, but then they will harden upon cooling. I transferred mine to a wire rack to cool for 3-5 minutes before eating.
