OREO BROOKIE

There is always a point in the year when we have to return to the world of the Oreo cookie as there are so many different flavours available in the United States. Today we look at a flavour that was so popular that it was brought back by popular demand earlier this year.

It is a dessert flavour that is really popular in the United States and I am sure if you searched online for the name of this snack it will come up as it is a trend that you can buy or even make at home. It also proves why the Oreo version of the snack has been so popular.

Firstly, before we look at the Oreo version, let’s delve into what actually is a Brookie? Well, it is basically a layer of chocolate chip cookie with a layer of chocolate chip brownie put on top. Now, take that ideology and imagine it being put into an Oreo.

Oreo Brookie-o is a standard cookie that you get in this product, then it is filled with not one but three different cremes in the centre – the original, another that is Brownie flavoured and one that has the taste of cookie dough. The snacks are available in grocery stores for $4.99 for a 13oz packet, with each packet 180 calories. There are very positive reviews of these snacks as they taste very good.
