| susieq112's Full Review: Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies 9oz |
Wow! I think the simplest and easiest way to total obliterate a healthy body is to welcome Little Debbie cakes into your house. For something sweet, Little Debbie, usually offers a huge variety packaged in boxes for everyone’s convenience. Even worse, those boxes, sell for usually no more than $1.50 and sometimes only for a $1 - who can beat that… Forget Hostess, I’m saving money with Little Debbie.
By far, Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies are on the top of my favorites list when it comes to a quick sweet treat. Don’t get me wrong, but I have to ban these things from my house right now, after all I am trying to follow my pre-spring diet.
How Delicious…
Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies are pretty simple, you have a extra thick, condensed, chewy, delicious (oh - how I want one) brownie, topped with a layer of fudge icing and then sprinkled with chocolate chips that have a hard candy coating (think Hershey's Kissables, but a lot smaller).
With all that chewy, gooey, goodness you can’t expect to get away with low calories or a great amount of nutrition. These little treats are pure joy, with side effects (weight gain). One brownie, mind you that’s one square, contains 280 Calories, 12g Fat and 40g Carbohydrates… Why a serving in one brownie rather than one package is beyond me - how can you possible leave the other brownie laying on the kitchen counter - opened!
The ingredients included in the Brownies are a mix of all things that make up a sweet treat. You’ll find normal baking items like Flour, Shortening, Cocoa, Eggs, Coloring and more. For a full list of the ingredients check-out the brownies at your local grocery store.
My Thoughts
Man - I don’t know if I can finish - I’m getting hungry! Truthfully, I love Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies - they just taste awesome, but I hate the calories and the fat content. No normal person would literally be able to eat these on a regular basis without starting to add on a few pounds. Even when I’m not on a diet this is one of the last Little Debbie cakes I will consider buying based on the fact that I eat them quickly and they are one of the highest calorie treats they make.
Of course, this isn’t a gourmet brownie made with the finest chocolate and cocoa, but for $1.50 you can’t go wrong here - in fact I’d probably choose these over a gourmet brownie myself - at least I know I’ll like this one. Little Debbie also makes a Fudge Brownie which is exactly like this one, but with nuts on top instead. I don’t care for the nuts, so these are my top choice.
Overall
I definitely recommend Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies to normal joe, just watch how many your eating… For those of you on a diet (like me) your better to just steer clear of these!
