This is unlike cookies and cream ice cream, which has a better balance between the vanilla ice cream and chocolate wafers. If these were vanilla donuts with the coating they currently have, then I imagine they might taste closer to the popular scoop shop variety. But the way they now are, I don\u2019t recognize much of anything that I\u2019d consider \u201ccreme.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>If Tastykake decides to come out with a Bakeshoppe line of mini donuts, it could repackage these as Double Chocolate Chip Cookie Mini Donuts.<\/p>\n<p>As for their texture, they\u2019re slightly chewy, which is what I\u2019ve come to expect from packaged donuts. The cookies &#038; creme coating adds a pleasant crunch, but it\u2019s not like a cookie. Actually, no cookies were harmed in the making of these. Instead, it\u2019s a sugary coating like Peeps. As someone who likes the crunchy exterior of Peeps, I have to say I\u2019ve been enjoying the donuts\u2019 texture.<\/p>\n<h3>Is there anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>As I mentioned at the beginning, this is the first flavor from Tastykake\u2019s Scoop Shop line, and I imagine there will be more varieties based on popular ice cream flavors. Perhaps chocolate chip cookie dough, mint chocolate chip, or Neapolitan?<\/p>\n<p>The donuts leave an odd mild aftertaste, but it\u2019s not so bizarre that it prevents me from eating more. Also, I really liked eating these with coffee. <\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>Tastykake\u2019s Scoop Shop Cookies &#038; Creme Mini Donuts are tasty packaged chocolate donuts with a nice crunch. I wish the \u201ccreme\u201d aspect were a bit more prominent, but they\u2019re still a nice, sweet snack.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DISCLOSURE:<\/strong> I received free samples of the product.
