Ghirardelli Crisp

Just like other everyday candy bars, there is an upscale version.  In this case, the Crisp bar is a refined take on the Nestle Crunch theme.

Ghirardhelli achieves that with the packaging, but falls short on execution.  The milk chocolate used in the recipe is “Rich and creamy” as stated, but is rich in sugar and lacking in chocolate in my opinion.  Too sweet…both as you eat as well as the finish and the lingering aftertaste.

Bottom line?  Not worth the premium cost.

Dancing Dear Chocolate Chip Cookies

These are really more like shortbread cookies with chocolate chips, but, they are fun and convenient…”12 cookies in happy packs of 2.”

Since they don’t skimp on the semisweet chocolate chips, they’re worth a try!
