Famous Amos is famous enough without the need for any introduction. Every time I passed by the kiosk at Causeway Point, I had to fight the desire to bring some cookies home. You can always catch a waft of the distinctive aroma even from a distance away. Freshly baked cookies have never smelled so nice!I finally caved in one day and decided to buy some cookies as an early treat for Christmas. Upon going closer to their kiosk, I was surprised to spot brownies and muffins as well and decided to ge
The muffin was pretty big and was quite reasonably priced at $2.80 for its size. There were a few flavours like the Double Chocolate Chip Crown Muffin and Chocolate Chip Crown Muffin but I opted for the Rocky Road Crown Muffin. The muffin was soft and not too dry. It also had chopped walnuts topping on it which added a bit of crunch. Overall, I found this to be quite decent.
There were Chocolate Chip Brownie, Chocolate Chip Walnut Brownie, Chocolate Chip Macadamia Brownie and Belgian Brownie. I opted for the Belgian Brownie. Unlike the muffins, I found this to be quite small for its price and a tad disappointing. There was no nuts inside and just a very thin layer of chocolate on top. Texture-wise, I thought this felt a little more like a cake. Probably better to get the Brownie with Walnut or Macadamia instead.
You can get the cookies in a standard bag with no additional cost, or with gift boxes or tin cans which would make great gifts, although the gifts boxes or tin cans would cost considerably more. I chanced upon the black cookie canister which I liked enough to get the cookies with it. There were a variety of cookies and I got the No Nuts Chocolate Chip and Chocolate Chips & Pecan Cookies. These were consistently firm and crunchy on every bite and remained so even after keeping for more than a week. There was also a generous amount of chocolate chips and pecan bits in it despite these being bite-sized cookies! Simply a delight on every bite!
All in all, the muffin was quite decent but I'd just stick to what they are famous for, the cookies. There's certainly a reason why Famous Amos cookies are famous!
