Gookie Dough | My New Favourite Treat

Food isn't something I usually talk about on my blog but when something as good as this lands on your doorstep, it would be a crime not to mention it. For those who don't know, I have a massive sweet tooth and even when I was a kid I would spend any spare money I had on a bag of pick 'n' mix consisting of cherry lips, chocolate peanuts and fizzy cola bottles. A strange mix, I know. Nowadays I try not to eat a lot of sugary food but every now and then I just crave something sweet. Gookie Dough is a delicious edible treat created by Anja and Olly from Nottingham and was inspired by their shared love for Willy Wonka and baking. I've only had my samples for about a week and I'm already obsessed!

Gooey Chocolate Chip* | £7.50 for 2
Out of all of the flavours in the range, this is the one I was most excited to try. It has a rich vanilla base with dark chocolate chunks instead of milk chocolate which I think is genius as it gives it a lovely edge and stops it being overly sweet. The texture of all the cookie dough is so soft and gooey, it literally melts in your mouth. They're all egg-free making them completely safe to eat raw and this flavour, in particular, is currently their only vegan option.

Funfetti Cake Batter* | £7.50 for 2
Inspired by the extremely popular American childhood birthday cake flavour, this combines a rich vanilla base with gorgeous chunks of white chocolate and is topped off with lots of little rainbow sugar sprinkles. My inner child practically screamed when I opened this one! I'm not usually a big fan of white chocolate as it can be a bit too sweet but this is just right and it's definitely one to try if you enjoy eating raw cake batter like I do!

Red Velvet* | £7.50 for 2
I haven't had much experience with red velvet desserts but boy does this taste good! With a red cocoa base and swirls of rich vanilla frosting, this is probably the most decadent one in the range! It's not something I can eat too much of as it is very sweet but I love how they've managed to make this flavour work! 

Triple Chocolate Fudge* | £7.50 for 2
I'm a sucker for anything triple chocolate and this really hits the spot when I need a quick sugar fix. Using dark cocoa cookie dough, milk chocolate fudge and white chocolate chunks, this a chocoholic's dream! I store all of my pots in the fridge and bring them to room temperature when I want to devour eat them. 

To all my fellow cookie dough lovers out there, do yourself a favour and give these a go!
