![]() If I can fault these cookies in any way I would want just a hint more mint from them. Oftentimes the mint can be too strong and overpower and other flavors battling for your tastebuds, but these Brussels have managed to hit the balance almost perfectly, with just a touch to be desired. Pairing perfectly with a cup of coffee or black tea, these cookies live up the the reputation Pepperidge Farm have for delivering the most sophisticated and “adult” tasting treats you can find in the grocery store.Ĭhocolate and mint are a classic combo that works extremely well but is surprisingly easy to mess up. Biting in you get that wonderful sugar crunch a la the top of a creme brûlée that is sweet but not cloying at all. The mint has a nearly identical firm but smooth texture as the dark layer, and comes across like a mint flavored white chocolate, which helps to maintain the already successful and delightful crunch of the original cookie. In good taste Pepperidge Farm have decided not to mess too much with a winning combo and have simply added a layer of mint on top of the already present dark chocolate. Fortunately for Brussel-lovers like myself, this year they got a holiday makeover with the limited edition Mint Brussels.
