Review: Oreo Brownies

One word: AWFUL

I like brownies. I like them cakey, I like them chewy. This one I don't. The Oreo brownie is cakey but much, much too sweet. I thought I'd get a brownie with Oreo pieces but what I got was like a really sweet cake with Orea cream filling scattered around. For the price (P67.75), I'd much rather eat a Dunkin' Donut brownie or a Mister Donut brownie or one from Brownies Unlimited. Or I'd rather make a microwaved brownie in a mug.

Donuts, donuts, donuts

When it comes to plain glazed donuts, I go for Krispy Kreme. I think they have the biggest good-tasting plain donuts in the country. Dunkin has bigger ones but they taste awful.

I ate a Cello's cheese donut a few weeks ago. I was rather surprised to see it was their most expensive one. Is the cheese parmigiano reggiano or what? I would have preferred to order the P29 chocolate donut instead of the P35 cheese one. Or gotten a glazed donut and sprinkled my own parmesan cheese on top.

I bought a set of Go Nuts Donuts' buy six-take six with a friend and was reminded again of how very, very sweet their donuts are. I tried a new flavor, something called Kettle Pineapple and I rather liked the pineapple jelly in the middle. The slight tartness was a good antidote to the thick white glaze generously covered with thick confectioner's sugar. Mmm, now I miss Dunkin's Black Raspberry filled donuts.

Maybe in the next half of the year. Have had too much sugar and fat already.
