Gimmee Jimmy’s Cookies Review and Giveaway

For those of you who have been following Between the Lines for awhile, you know that I am a sucker when it comes to baked goods.  Cookies, brownies, and breads are my major weaknesses.    So you should know I was beyond ecstatic when these boxes of cookies arrived on my doorstep from Gimmee Jimmy’s Cookies.

Gimmee Jimmy’s Cookies made their debut in 1983, when founder Jimmy Libman made them available for the public in simple cookie tins.  By word of mouth, the popularity of Gimmee Jimmy’s Cookies spread.  Gimmee Jimmy’s Cookies makes more than cookies.  They are also busy baking muffins, cakes, brownies, and much more.  Gimmee Jimmy’s desserts are  not only baked fresh daily, but they are also Kosher. 

My family and I are now among the tens of thousands of people out there who have been lucky enough to try Gimmee Jimmy’s Cookies.  I feel kind of bad for the millions of you out there who have yet to have  a chance.  This past week, we tried six different flavors of cookies and LOVED them all.  We, of course, all had our favorites, but no one had a negative thing to say about any of them.

My favorite was the Oatmeal Raisin.  It was a soft, chewy cookie with a cinnamon flavor.  It was also a very HUGE cookie.  Typically, I can eat about three cookies in one sitting, but one of Jimmy’s cookies was enough.  My oldest daughter loved the Chocolate Chip M&M cookie.  These were also very large, but crispy instead of chewy.  My youngest daughter loved the Cranberry Pecan.  She loves fruit and cookies, so of course she would love them together.  This was also a chewy cookie.  My husband’s favorite was the good old Chocolate Chip Cookie.  He said he liked that it was crunchy and they didn’t go overboard on the chocolate chips.  We also loved the Heath Bar Crunch and the Peanut Butter cookies!

Now that I have you all salivating, I have some good news to give you.  The generous people from Gimmee Jimmy’s Cookies have offered one lucky reader the chance to win 1lb of assorted cookies!   Who could turn that down??
