Simone's Home Baked Cookies Review and Giveaway



I recently ran across a great little Etsy shop by the name of Simone's Home Baked. Just the sound of the name alone makes you think there has to be something good baking in the oven. I was definitely right and I was thrilled to do a review! I was sent a bakers dozen of assorted cookies to taste and enjoy. They were sent in this cute little Starbucks coffee tin. My husband thought that the cookies were made from Starbucks until I told him that they were homemade, they were just sent that way! The first cookie I went for was the Pumpkin Chip Cookie, which was definitely a no brainer as I love anything and everything pumpkin. All I can say is YUM, these cookies were so delicious. The combination of pumpkin and chocolate chips was definitely right on the money and they tasted like they had been baked that morning. The next one I tried was the Apple Crisp Cookies and these were by far my favorites! They tasted like a cross between an Apple Pie and flavors of Christmas. They were packed with a lot of flavor and a lot of tasty ingredients not to mention so chewy. SO GOOD! Even better, I put one in the microwave for a few seconds and it was like a warm slice of apple pie, all I needed was the ice cream! I also tried the Dark Chocolate Cranberry Indulgence Cookies, which were very tasty and packed with white chocolate chips, cranberries and nuts. They were so attractive looking too with half of the cookie being dipped in dark chocolate. The Oatmeal Scotchies were another favorite of mine too. Reminded me a little of my late father in law's Butterscotch Chip Cookies, they were really good too! There wasn't a cookie in this little Starbucks box that wasn't good, fresh and you could definitely tell made with love. These are not any ordinary store bought, processed cookie. These cookies from Simone's Home Baked are delicious!



Simone's Home Baked Cookies are reasonably priced too! A Baker's Dozen of her delicious flavors are $10 except the Dark Chocolate Cranberry Indulgence Cookies which are $20 for a bakers dozen. Flavors of her cookies include:
Apple Spice
Chocolate Chip
Dark Chocolate Cranberry Indulgence
Oatmeal Scotchies
Cinnamon Spice
Pumpkin Chip

Those are the ones listed on her site, she may have more flavors that aren't yet added. When you order one box of a bakers dozen of cookies or five samples, you get a package of two surprise cookies chosen at random, it could be any type of cookies other than the ones you ordered, it may be ones that are even listed yet! Limit one surprise package per order, per customer.

I love Russian Tea Cookies or snowballs. Though, I am far better at eating them than baking them.
