Before I begin, full disclosure - Enjoy Life approached me and asked if I would try their new line of cookies. They sent me all four flavors for free and here is my honest opinion of these cookies...
They ROCK!
To clarify, I have tried a lot of gluten-free products, most of which flat out sucked. But these babies hold their own again their gluten laden counterparts.
Triple score bonus - they are Vegan & contain no trans fats (Snoopy happy dance)!!!
They do unfortunately contain oil; palm oil to be exact. So if you're sensitive to oil or avoid it for health or weight issues, these aren't the perfect cookies. However, for those who can tolerate a little oil here and there, these are the perfect treat (notice I said treat and not a part of a daily regimen). I will confess, that I have been chowing down on these cookies daily, in obscene amounts since they arrived on my doorstep - yeah, they are that good!
I mentioned four flavors, they are Double Chocolate, Chocolate Chip, Vanilla Honey Graham and Sugar Crisp. Double Chocolate is hands down my ultimate favorite, followed by Chocolate Chip. The Vanilla Honey Graham is a unique flavor and isn't bad. The Sugar Crisp is very similar to the Graham and isn't something I would typically buy. Then again in any cookie arena, I'm always going to go for chocolate, but if someone handed me either one of these non-chocolate cookies, I wouldn't turn my back on them.
These cookies are thin & crispy and about the size of a soft ball (flattened of course). They taste so awesome, that you would seriously question if they were in fact Vegan or Gluten-free. While I am no longer sensitive to gluten, I would buy these cookies in a heart beat, as limiting one's exposure to gluten, can reduce the chances of one becoming sensitive.
They are sold both online through various retailers and in grocers and natural food stores (check the gluten-free aisle).
Check'em out!
