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

Those funny little tree dwelling elves at Keebler really caught my attention last year. After being pushed to the back of my junk food brain, they officially put Fudge Stripes back on the map with killer Birthday Cake and Peppermint flavors that stood up to all of the limited release cookies I had in 2016.<\/p>\n

To the resounding excitement of cinna-sluts like myself all across the nation, they\u2019re kicking off 2017 with a Cinnamon Roll rendition of their famous striped confections.<\/p>\n

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

Immediately the rich robust smell of cinnamon and vanilla icing float out of the cool brown package. The aroma mimics that unmistakable head-turning scent that wafts out all Cinnabon\u2019s in the finest shopping malls of America, resulting in the starry-eyed activation of the salivary glands.<\/p>\n

The crunchy snap of the cookie is more pronounced than your average Fudge Stripe, which tends to occupy that space right between a soft and hard cookie. Leading the flavor is a soft cinnamon rush that is beautiful and balanced by the the thick and smooth vanilla glaze. It has a little bit less of a buttery taste than the usual Stripes\u2019 shortbread base, and the dark tan cookie is speckled with brown giving an even and full cinnamon burst in every bite. <\/p>\n

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

The overall flavor is less sweet than their standard cookie but also not too aggressively spiced. For people who love cinnamon, like myself, there\u2019s enough to satisfy, but not so much that they would turn someone off who may be more adverse to a strongly spiced cookie. Taste-wise the product they are most reminiscent of are cinnamon Teddy Grahams.<\/p>\n

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

Unlike an Oreo, there\u2019s no real way to separate the baked base from the coating, but it\u2019s pretty apparent that the cinnamon comes from the brown speckled cookie and the sweetness driven by the glaze. Surprisingly, the frosting flavor comes across much sweeter in the smell than it does on the tongue, which makes me feel like I could eat approximately 45 of these before any kind of \u201cstop\u201d registers in my brain.<\/p>\n

For cookies that were baked inside of a tree, these are an impressive and satisfying take on one of Saturday morning\u2019s greatest indulgences. Hopefully the Keebler clan can continue to channel their elfin voodoo and crank out a pancakes and syrup flavor so I will never have to cook breakfast again.<\/p>\n
