I purchase this tray for a youth gathering. It was very attractive and inviting with several different types of cookies. They could each find a type of cookie they liked.

Cookies were overcooked. Bakers are leaving them in the oven for too long. We usually buy the smaller pack but decided to try the variety pack. It was not a good choice.

The four varieties, and the amount of total cookies was great for a party. The price was excellent for the amount of cookies received.However, the cookies were not as good as expected. They were crunchy hard rather than soft and cake-like.

I ordered and picked up the tray of cookies from Sam’s Club, upon arriving home, I noticed the expiration date which doesn’t give enough time to eat that amount of cookies.

I am guessing your experience will be hit or miss with these cookies. I bought them 11/8 and the sell-by date was 11/11. Just look at the cookies first--they did look dry and stale to me but I bought them anyhow because I was short on time.

The outside ring of cookies were good. They were fairly soft and chewy. The cookies in the middle seemed to be expired nabisco cookies. They were hard and tasteless. No one at the party would eat them and we had to throw them away.

As I enjoy these large quantities for kid/teen events. They kids did mention they were rock solid. I did try one as it was hard to bite into but still good. Purchase the day before a large event. The smaller cookie tray was a hit however.

Oatmeal raisin cookies are extremely hard and over baked. They were processed on 12/21 and I purchased them on 12/21 so they weren’t stale just over baked.

They were delicious and lasted for about 2 weeks

Too sweet for my taste! However the party where they went to the hosts enjoyed them immensely.
