Hello and Happy Monday! How are you holding up after snowmageddon weekend? We were pretty lucky here with just a dusting of snow/ice but it's extremely cold. A lot of our surrounding cities got hit hard with ice and power outages so I'm praying for everyone going through it right now. I think I'm on day eight or nine of this nasty cold I brought back from Atlanta so it's been nice to have an excuse to be stuck at home- I don't feel as bad about laying in bed all day, haha.
Today I thought we could do a a fun foodie review. When I was picking up a few things on Saturday, I snagged a batch of the new viral Strawberry Cream Cheese cookies from Publix. I keep seeing these all over TikTok so I had to try- I love anything strawberry and they're so fun and festive for Valentine's season. These are a limited time flavor and they're also on BOGO this week. I paid around $3.50ish for a baker's dozen!
The cookies have a strawberry base with cream cheese flavored chips and strawberry "flakes." If you like strawberry and super sweet desserts, I think you'll enjoy these. They are very sweet but so delicious! The strawberry flavor definitely packs a punch but isn't weird or fake tasting to me- it has a nice fresh zing. It's a little reminiscent of the strawberry pop-tart filling flavor to me. Strawberry can be hit or miss for me so I'm glad it's very prominent and shows up here without any weird taste. I assume the strawberry flakes are probably what gives it that bit of "zing" and the flavor pairs great with the cream cheese chips. They also taste great- you never know if cream cheese is going to be too wangy/sour when it comes to a dessert. Definitely a yummy decadent treat- I would for sure repurchase!
Are you yay or nay on strawberry?
