For a limited time only, gingerbread and Oreo fans can enjoy the best of both worlds with the Gingerbread Oreos.
Sold exclusively at Walmart stores, these Gingerbread Oreos were described as "tast[ing] like Christmas" by an editor from the Huffington Post. The cookie has a light ginger taste to it, but does not contain any overpowering spices, making for a subtle, but delicious snack for those who fear strong ginger flavors. While these cookies are great on their own, Foodiggity blogger Chris Durso suggests dipping them in eggnog instead of the typical milk to spice things up a little bit.
These holiday cookies are already starting to appear at local Walmart stores, but they won’t be around forever, so be sure to keep an eye out for them.
