The Chocolate Chip Mini Cookies are a little on the sweet side but have a nice
well-rounded flavor all in all. The Ginger Mini Snapz are very flavorful and
slightly salty.
| Texture
|

The Chocolate Chip Mini Cookies are crisp little cookies — much like the
ones you find in little snack bags marketed to kids. The Ginger Mini Snapz are
a little more crisp than the Chocolate Chip Mini Cookies and have a very slight
gritty texture (but certainly not too much to deter you from eating them).
| Storage

These cookies come in a re-sealable 7 oz bag (probably about 35 cookies to
a bag). Store in a cool dry place and I’m sure they will last for a long
time (unopened).

Personally I prefer homemade cookies but if you are in a hurry or on the road
these crisp little cookies will satisfy your sweet tooth.

These cookies remind me of the small little
crisp cookies made by companies like Pepperidge Farms Mini
Chocolate Chunks or Ginger Snaps. They are crisp little cookies
that are maybe slightly bigger than "bite size".
The Chocolate Chip Mini Cookies have a nice flavor and I believe
that the Ginger Mini Snapz would make a wonderful cookie crust.
What I liked about these cookies is there hard crunchy texture
— unlike some other gluten-free cookies that are very
soft and "cake-like". Pamela’s makes the obvious
alternative use suggestions for the Ginger Mini Snaps for
a ginger cookie crust and an ice cream topping for the Chocolate
Chip Mini Cookies — both I think are great suggestions.
All in all a good shelf stable product to keep in the pantry
for anytime snacking or to throw into your child’s lunch!
