\"Nabisco<\/a><\/p>\n

To me, Kevin Hart and Chewy Chips Ahoy of are one in the same. Allow me to explain.<\/p>\n

Every time I turn on the TV lately it seems as if Kevin Hart has a new movie. Whether he\u2019s the star or in a supporting role, he\u2019s always there. Now he\u2019s breaking into commercials as well with his latest Vitaminwater<\/a> spot. It drives me nuts!<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t find him particularly funny and it\u2019s not like he\u2019s some fantastic actor either. He\u2019s kind of like that one person in your circle of friends that is only inside of it because he is slightly acquainted with each person in the group. No one really hates him but no one really likes him at the same time.<\/p>\n

Friend 1: Should we invite Kevin?<\/p>\n

Friend 2: Oh yeah, Kevin! I mean\u2026 sure, he\u2019s an OK guy I guess. Right?<\/p>\n

When it comes to the Chewy Chips Ahoy, every recent trip to the grocery store seems to mark a discovery of a new flavor.<\/p>\n

While the Kevin Hart Hollywood (and if he keeps up his current pace, world) takeover causes me much anxiety, the Chips Ahoy one just makes my sweet tooth an eager beaver.<\/p>\n

When I set my gazes upon Birthday Frosting Filled Chewy Chips Ahoy, the festive sight instantly conjured up images of birthdays from yesteryear. My friends wearing party hats, a tabletop covered with presents, Laser Tag, the dagger of ritual, a lamb fresh for sacrificing, Satan\u2026 Wait. What the fuck was going on at my birthday parties!?<\/p>\n

Good thing I have my shrink on speed dial. Guess we can set aside that harrowing fifth grade milk spilling incident. Well, at least for a little while.<\/p>\n

Deep-seated childhood memories behind us, let\u2019s discuss some frosting filled cookies.<\/p>\n

\"Nabisco<\/a><\/p>\n

The outside of the cookie is pretty much what you\u2019d expect from a Chewy Chips Ahoy. It\u2019s essentially the basic chocolate chip cookie, except there are colored nonpareils beside the chocolate chips. They just scream \u201cparty!\u201d They may seem gimmicky but they actually compliment the chocolate chips nicely.<\/p>\n

Inside of the cookie is where things get real interesting. It seemed like these cookies were going to be too sweet because of the birthday frosting, but the cookie to frosting ratio was perfect. The frosting isn\u2019t packed to the point where you\u2019re going to get a sugar rush, and it\u2019s not meager where you\u2019re left wanting more.<\/p>\n

As for the taste of the frosting, it\u2019s actually surprisingly good for what it is. If you\u2019re expecting some fancy-ass buttercream frosting then go ask your local baker to recreate the cookies, or do it yourself if you have the adequate baking skills. The frosting is more of the confetti variety, pretty much the same kind you would find on those Funfetti cupcakes. (and really, who doesn\u2019t like Funfetti?).<\/p>\n

\"Nabisco<\/a><\/p>\n

The best part about the frosting being inside the cookie is it does not harden up at all and stays really fresh. I guess getting entombed in a cookie has that effect on things. Maybe I\u2019ll just request to be baked inside a giant cookie when I die. Then maybe if there\u2019s some crazy guy who can make a serum like Herbert West in Re-Animator<\/i> my complexion will still be halfway decent when I\u2019m brought back to life. Okay, I think I have more issues than satanic birthday parties and milk spilling. Yikes! Anyways\u2026<\/p>\n

The whole cookie is pretty sweet, with the chocolate chips and nonpareils and frosting, but it is not overpoweringly so. Well, to a point. I personally would not want to eat more than three at a time. They\u2019re the type of cookie that\u2019s good in moderation. I suppose we are supposed to eat all cookies in moderation, but I don\u2019t subscribe to that logic most of the time. <\/p>\n

I kept thinking about cookie cake the whole time I was eating these. They are definitely a worthy birthday cake substitute should your family forget your birthday or if you\u2019re for some reason running from the law on your birthday and don\u2019t have time to sit down for a real cake. Whatever your cake deprivation reasons may be, these cookies have you covered.<\/p>\n
