Pillsbury Ready To Bake Batman Shape Sugar Cookies - Review

I purchased these recently to take to a gather where there would be children as I thought they would get a kick out of them.

 The box is colorful, the instructions simple a there cutouts on the back that you could hide in the kitchen for a quick scavenger hunt.

These are the cookies out of the package - the sort of  had the Batman shape; but then again it could be 3 lemons or even abstract art - is not as well defined on the cookie they are on the box.

The lighting is not the best on the picture, but even so, the end result was you could barely make out the shape and I was surprised to have so many left cookies left over.   The taste was that of a regular sugar cookie and when I took them into work and set them in a common area they were gone within a day.

I think it might have worked out better it there was a chocolate cookie around a yellow bat signal as you might have been able to make out what the emblem is to be, but based on my experience, it is not something I would buy again.

PROS

• Fun, colorful box with Batman emblem on cookies could get children interested in baking and there are cutout for a short hide-and-seek game
• Instructions are clear and easy and even young children can place pre-shaped cookie dough on a baking sheet.
• Only takes 10 to 12 minutes to bake
• Decent flavor/textured sugar cookies.

CONS

• Batman emblem is not clear on product - is yellow emblem on white background and not as clear as what is on the box.
• While other themed-cookies I have taken to events with children were snatched up quickly, these were passed over for chocolate chip cookies - a fail like this could discourage kids from being interested in baking.
