Today’s junk food: New Brownie Filled Chewy Chips Ahoy!
New Brownie Filled Chewy Chips Ahoy!: The Money Shot
Following the podcast, I set out to find these New Brownie Filled Chewy Chips Ahoy! Only one store, my trusty Target, had stacks and stacks of these. Into my basket it went. The cashier asked me, “Are these good?” “We’ll see, young Padawan” I whispered, “We’ll see….”
New Brownie Filled Chewy Chips Ahoy!: CRAM
New Brownie Filled Chewy Chips Ahoy! are CRAMMED with brownie taste, but are they CRAMMED WITH BROWNIE? Because that’s what we want, isn’t it? The front of the package makes it seem like these cookies should be about a 1/2 inch thick each, no?

New Brownie Filled Chewy Chips Ahoy!: MMMM STEAROYL LACTYLATE
New Brownie Filled Chewy Chips Ahoy! are filled with lots of long sounding ingredients. I’m assuming some of them make up brownies. At least, I hope so.
New Brownie Filled Chewy Chips Ahoy!: Hey, they ARE thicker
I joked on The Nosh Show that these New Brownie Filled Chewy Chips Ahoy! ought to be super thick and that when you open the package, you only get like six cookies…but these cookies ARE a lot thicker than your typical Chips Ahoy!
New Brownie Filled Chewy Chips Ahoy!
I mean, these other Chips Ahoy! looked a lot more flat and sort of withered as compared to these New Brownie Filled Chewy Chips Ahoy! … and believe it or not, when I opened the package and sniffed…definitely smelled like brownies. Sort of that darker cocoa smell. Interesting…
New Brownie Filled Chewy Chips Ahoy!
I bit into one of these New Brownie Filled Chewy Chips Ahoy! and holy eff if it didn’t taste like a brownie. Like other Chewy Chips Ahoy!, these cookies were nice and soft, and my teeth sunk right into them. These not only smelled like brownie, but they definitely tasted like brownies…deep cocoa flavor that morphed into a nice not-too-sweet chocolate taste as I chewed more. Plus, and this could all be in my head, but I felt like these had that great stick-to-the-root-of-your-mouth sensation that brownies typically give.
The outside still had that nice typical cookie dough flavor with chocolate chips, but when my eyes were closed, the brownie flavor definitely was more prominent. I personally thought this was a home run for Chewy Chips Ahoy! Good work.
PURCHASED AT: Target
COST: $2.00

Oh holy cow, these look absolutely delicious and frankly my fitness routine is in serious jeopardy. So ONE cookie has 80 calories, how many did you eat?
@Steph: I had two! I could’ve eaten 22. They were good 😉
Eh, pass. I don’t really like brownies. Yeah, I SAID IT.
@Trout Poutt: ((OOOOOOO ______ oooooo)))) WHAAAA???????
YOU HEARD ME. Keep your brownie-filled cookies. Now, had they been PB filled, it would be a different story. Wait, do PB filled cookies exist somewhere? I feel like they should. PB-J filled cookies, so many delicious possibilities…
I guess it depends how fresh they are because the package I had did not really have an aroma of anything once opened, and the taste was much like flavored cardboard, I thing they may be a bit better with a huge glass of milk and maybe even heated up a bit
@Shelly – what’d you end up doing with the rest? Did you ever try microwaving?
I have a big place in my heart for chewy chips ahoy cookies. I find they’re even better after a quick nuking or a stay in the fridge for a bit. If you have any left, you should report back on how they are warmed up or letting them become chilled;]
@Nick: They were devoured at my office! Shoulda done the microwave test – damn
@Eric: I guess I’ll have to pick some up and test it out myself!
I really like them. And they have a bunch of others…I gotta try the fudge-filled ones asap.
@Kahnfucius: Fudge filled Chip Ahoy? OOO me likey
The reeses cookies are awesome. Haven’t found the brownie filled ones yet. I did see the Oreo filled ones but I’m not a fan of oreos.
@RanRan5: Oh, try the PB Cup oreos! They are AWESOME.
Just tried these…omg just ate the hole package. Try warming them up in the mic for about ten seconds…. Bam
I really like these. They are not overly sweet, and that was a concern of mine, being a 6/10 chocoholic. The brownie, cookie dough, and chips were a nice blend. I ate three before my husband took them into his home office. I need to keep my girly figure, so I’ll let him nosh on the rest of them. Absolutely a home run. He just said “thank you, these are a delicious sugar shock”.
