Nestle Snack Bar Dough: Oven baked deliciousness is too tempting

Move over boring granola bars. Nestle Snack Bar Dough is here to tempt your taste buds with oven baked deliciousness.

Nestle Snack Bar Dough is hitting the shelves in the refrigerated aisle. Before you overlook this refrigerated dough as just another cookie, the flavor explosion in those subtle packages are must try. Even the biggest skeptic will be singing a different tune after one whiff of this delicious aroma.

For many people, the whiffs of freshly baked treats straight from the oven are heavenly. It could be the warm spices, roasted nuts or decadent chocolate that makes your stomach grumble in anticipation. Standing around the oven awaiting the door to open and the time to ding can be arduous. Still, that first bite, fresh from the oven is worth every lingering second.

Snack bars, like granola bars, have become a popular snack item. The convenience of a whole grain, on-the-go option is an easy choice. While this snack is tasty, it could be so much more.

Nestle’s Toll House Simply Delicious Snack Bar Dough takes the traditional bar snack to a totally new level. The refrigerated dough is baked in your own oven. It is as if you made your own granola bar-style snack from scratch. The flavor is definitely worth the 10-ish minute wait.

This new offering from Nestle comes in two flavors, Cranberry Walnut with Dark Chocolate and Chocolate Chip with Toasted Oats. While similar to a traditional refrigerated dough, these bars focus more on better for you ingredients, like 5-seed blend. Although not stated by the company, it made me feel less guilty about eating two of these tasty treats.

While I would love to eat freshly baked cookies every day, I know that this particular choice may not be the wisest one. Still, snack style bars (or granola style bars) are a better alternative to a plate of cookies. With this version that is baked fresh in the oven, the flavor is far tastier that unwrapping a room temperature bar from a package.

Recently, I tried both the Cranberry Walnut with Dark Chocolate and the Chocolate Chip with Toasted Oats flavors. Personally, I am obsessed with the Cranberry Walnut option. The combination of the tart cranberry with the sweet chocolate is scrumptious. Add to the flavor the texture from the oats and walnuts and this bar is a party in your mouth.

Although these snack bars are amazing hot from the oven, the bars are just as tasty room temperature. The texture and flavors are enjoyable the next day, too (that is if the family doesn’t eat them all in a single sitting). Whether enjoyed as an afternoon snack, breakfast or even a dessert, these snack bars are definitely worth keeping stocked in the refrigerator.

The Nestle Simply Delicious Snack Bar Dough is available in the refrigerated section of most grocery stores. It is part of the brand’s Simply Delicious line.
