REVIEW: Chips Ahoy Toy Story Special Edition Crunchy Cookies

My recent reviews include Minions-themed ice cream and Nerds-coated animal cookies, but I swear, I’m technically an adult. For that reason, I’m bucking my recent review trend and will be giving you my expert insight on … oh wait, forget what I just said, I’m reviewing Toy Story-themed cookies.

The only thing I’m bucking is my toy horse. Ride like the wind, Bullseye!

I’ll try to review “adult” food next time. I won’t steer you wrong. You’ve got a friend in me.

Anyway, Chips Ahoy Exclamation Point has a new Pixar collab to celebrate the release of Toy Story 5. I haven’t seen it yet, but I’m of course a fan of the series. You’d have to be a soulless heathen not to be. If you are wondering what my Pixar picks are, here’s my top 5:

5. Coco

4. Wall-E

3. Up

2. Monsters, Inc.

1. Toy Story 3

Now, if you want to know where Chips Ahoy slots on my cookie rankings, here’s my top 342:

342. Chips Ahoy!

Yeah, I like to give Chips Ahoy a hard time, but I’m still always a sucker for more, and these sounded good. They have a graham cookie base “packed with white fudge chips, colorful candy-coated chips, and star-shaped sheriff badge sprinkles.”

Did they taste good? Well, I gotta say, they nailed the Toy Story theme, because they certainly tasted Woody!

Nah, they’re as decent as you’d expect a blue bag of Chips Ahoy cookies to be.

I like the graham cookie base. The flavor isn’t far off from regular Chips Ahoy, but I think it’s superior. The cookie’s texture might be marginally better here too. There’s a stickiness to the bite that lands between a typical sandy Chips Ahoy and those cafeteria classic Linden’s Butter Crunch cookies.

I don’t like the candy-coated chips. The shells are thick and crispier than mini M&M’s, and they don’t have enough flavor to warrant how deeply embedded in your molars they get.

They lazily attempt to tie in Woody’s sheriff badge as sprinkles, but those are also too hard and barely noticeable on the beige cookie. The entire Toy Story color palette barely pops on these at all.

The white fudge chips are pointless. They taste like “sweet.” It’s not even a flavor. There’s chocolate under the candy-shelled pieces, but these really lack a chocolate punch. Lose the shells and let the star sprinkles be the crunch element. The white fudge could have been marshmallow bits to just make this the s’mores cookie you’re gonna wish they were.

Don’t even bother with the “candy” shell unless you stamp the name “cANDY” on the bottom of every cookie. Ya know, for synergy!

They’re mid – on par with a standard blue bag of Chips Ahoy, which are eternally mid. In the end, I found the general Toy Story concept a little uninspired too. These won’t have any buzz. … um, but as far as cookie releases, it has been a light year, so maybe? Nah to both that thought and that forced reference.

I would have preferred Chewy Chips Ahoy, but these did taste much better dipped in coffee.

See, I drink coffee. I am an adult. Exclamation point.
