Once again, M&S appear to have gone overboard with NEW products.. They have literally got chocolate, biscuits and desserts coming out of their eyeballs with a fancy, Spirit of Summer range thrown in for good measure. I am not entirely sure of the logic behind the latter given it is barely even Spring but the brightly coloured packaging is quite enticing and worth a look if you're already feeling tropical!
As I am not feeling quite "August Bank Holiday" yet I'll be sticking with the regular line today with the NEW Milk Chocolate Cookie Dough Bites which were specifically requested for review - I do aim to please! The 140g, resealable foil baggy of a metallic orange hue, cost £2 with its chocolate contents being suitable for Vegetarians.. Big up the Veggies!
Milk chocolate and dark biscuit crumb with a soft white chocolate and biscuit filling (46%).
I was pleased to discover some fairly sizeable nuggets in the bag which I would say were comparable to large marbles.. Although they smelt much nicer than marbles of chocolatey, cookie goodness! Popping one in the mouth, a soft bite that was almost fudge like was the first thing to strike me which then transitioned into something more crunchy with a gritty sugariness just like you would find with actual cookie dough! Taste wise, they were very chocolatey and rich with what I think was a malty sort of flavour - Not quite full on Malteser but definitely a hint! I can't say the cookie dough aspect was anything other than subtle but surprisingly, I didn't feel anything was amiss.. There was already plenty going on with the other sweet elements! Magically, more-ish!
Oh M&S.. Are you intentional mess-ers or genuinely ridiculously inconsistent with quality of your products as these NEW Milk Chocolate Cookie Dough Bites are shockingly glorious! They hit the spot big time and feel like a real substantial snack thanks to the different textures and all round chunkiness. I will certainly be buying more and can see them being a total hit with the masses so get yourself a bag, pronto! It's a 4.5 out of 5 from me.
Look outstanding, I will be asking my Mum to get me some of these
ReplyDeleteI love cookie dough, especially in ice cream, cannot wait to try in chocolate form
Get the Mother on it asap! :D You can't beat a bit of cookie dough.. or ice cream or chocolate for that matter! I fear we love it all haha xx
DeleteM&S are such trolls...they do loads of new gluten free products but can't be arsed to make these gluten free too. Hmmph. Not a happy Butty :(
ReplyDeleteThey can't make everything gluten free butty :( xx
DeleteNEED. WANT!! xxx
ReplyDeleteGO FORTH PEANUT! xx
DeleteMmmm, definitely intrigued by these!!! I wouldn't say no if someone was eating a bag and offered- might not necessarily go and in a mad MUST try though- cookie dough is something I'm fairly ambivalent about (although the 'fudge texture'is something that draws me in!!)
