Chips Ahoy! Root Beer Float Cookies

World of Snacks is located in the United States and is actively seeking out the best snacks in the world.  Over the past 14 months or so we have reviewed unique treats from 31 different countries, including the US.  At the beginning of this year we launched our International Snack Store and began selling candies, cookies, cakes, and chips from England.  We followed in February with American Snacks for export and in March we will begin selling German Snacks online.  Each month this year we will extend our inventory to include a new country and their best snacks.

Although we currently offer American snacks in our online store, we started off with just the basics.  As the requests come in we plan to expand our inventory of US snacks.  The first request was for Kellogg’s Pop Tarts, and you can now buy those online in our store. Since then we’ve had request for several other items including these new Chips Ahoy! Ice Cream Creations.  Being they are a brand new snack in our home country we decided to give them a try. We picked up two different versions, the Root Beer Float Cookies and the Dolce De Leche Cookies.

Today we are reviewing the Chips Ahoy! Root Beer Float Cookies and plan to review the other versions in the near future.  Our full-time taste testers are big fans of Chips Ahoy! Cookies and we currently offer the classic version in our store.  There are many varieties of Chips Ahoy! and personally I prefer the non-chewy version.  I like to pair my cookies with milk and the chewy cookies simply do not work well when dipped.  That being said, I definitely understand why many people, including our other testers, prefer the chewy chocolate chips.  As you may have picked up, the Root Beer Float cookies are in fact a rendition of the chewy Chips Ahoy! Lineup.  So, now you have a little back-story, let’s get on with our snack review!

Nabisco really did this American snack right.  With creamy vanilla and root beer flavored chocolate chips, these small chewy cookies actually taste just like a root beer float! All our testers agreed that this is as close as you can possibly get to having the actual ice cream treat in a cookie format.  Somehow they’ve even managed to get a hint of the carbonation effect.   One of our testers truly dislikes root beer, and the cookie is so similar they did not like this snack either, but all that does is re-enforce how accurate the taste is.

Will World of Snacks include Chips Ahoy! Root Beer Float Cookies in our international snack store?  Not just yet, but hopefully in the near future.  So far our American snack sales have been a little sluggish and with our British Snacks sales through the roof, we may focus on that aspect of the business a little more.  We are also getting ready to add our full line-up of German Snacks, so we also have our hands full!  However, if you’d like to sample these cookies and live outside the US, contact us now and we can arrange a sale and have them shipped to you.  If you’d like to stay up-to-date with our progress and receive special offers, be sure to leave your details to the right.  Keep on snacking world!
