<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Someone at Oreo has a weakness for chocolate, and we are reaping the benefits. Earlier this year, we saw the releases of Brookie-O<\/a>, Chocolate Hazelnut, and Java Chip Oreo<\/a>, and when the news of Limited Edition Salted Caramel Brownie Oreos broke earlier this month, another chocolate offering from the brand still felt like a welcome surprise.<\/p>\n Although Oreo is no stranger to caramel and brownie flavors (see: Salted Caramel Oreo Thins<\/a>, Brownie Batter Oreo<\/a>, and the aforementioned Brookie-O variety), this is Oreo’s first attempt at a salt-dusted chocolate wafer cookie. Two kinds of creme (brownie and caramel-flavored layers) complete the sandwich.<\/p>\n Mere days after the product announcement spread over social media, Limited Edition Salted Caramel Brownie Oreo Cookies graced my shopping cart. Why was I thrilled to give these a try?<\/p>\n A. Despite accusations of overstaying its welcome as a fad flavor, salted caramel remains among my favorites.<\/p>\n B. I enjoyed the Brookie-Os and need some brownie creme back in my life.<\/p>\n C. The promise of a new Oreo flavor hitting store shelves periodically halts my desire to escape society and live in the woods as an urban legend slash bog witch.<\/p>\n D. I’ll take any possible opportunity to reinforce that “caramel” has three syllables.<\/p>\n E. All of the above<\/p>\n (If you guessed E, you are correct. Have an Oreo!)<\/p>\n With these reasons in mind, the Salted Caramel Brownie Oreo mostly satisfies.<\/p>\n First, adding salt to the outside of the cookie is truly an inspired choice. Biting into the sandwich yields a pleasant experience, much like eating a sea salt caramel or any other salt-topped sweet: a strong saltiness hits the mouth first, but quickly melts into and enhances the sweetness of the other flavors.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, the Oreo’s caramel creme layer needs more help than the salt can give. Besides a delicate brown sugar vibe, it doesn’t offer a ton of flavor. A hint of browned butter flavor would have gone a long way to recreate the taste of salt’s tri-syllabic life partner. Swapping the caramel creme entirely for a dot of sticky caramel sauce would have been an interesting choice too. (Maybe two novelties \u2014 real caramel and a salted cookie \u2014 would have been too much excitement for one launch?)<\/p>\n Happily, each Double Stuf-size cookie contains proportionally more brownie creme. It definitely overshadows the caramel layer \u2014 but that’s for the best. The brownie creme is rich and fudgy, just like the batter I make sure to salvage from the bottom of my mixing bowl, and works well with the salt.<\/p>\n Overall, these Limited Edition Salted Caramel Brownies feature a successful salty hit, but it is hard to overlook the imperfect caramel creme. If you purchase them, take a bite of the entire sandwich for a sweet-and-salty chocolate experience that includes \u2014 if you pay attention \u2014 a whisper of caramel. If you insist on twisting open your Oreo cookies to indulge in the creme first, you might become salty yourself.<\/p>\n Purchased Price:<\/strong> $3.79 Someone at Oreo has a weakness for chocolate, and we are reaping the benefits.
