There are days when I like to bake and then there are days when I prefer to be lazy and grab something out of a box. This last month I was a little under the weather during the holidays. Instead of baking a batch of cookies to leave out for Santa, we left him some yummy Gold Emblem cookies that you can purchase at CVS.
Yes, we cheated and didn’t make any cookies for Santa but that is okay. I think he was okay with what the kids left for him to snack on.
We received the following Gold Emblem products to try:
- Gold Emblem Brownie Cookies
- Gold Emblem Maple Leaf Brownie Cookies
- Gold Emblem Select Vanilla Coffee Cookies
- Gold Emblem Coffee
The kids left Santa a cup of coffee instead of milk along with a plate of cookies. Santa ate all of the Brownie Cookies that we left out. We knew those must have been good and we finished the box in no time. The other two cookies are good too but the brownies were my favorite.
Now the coffee, my husband LOVES it! He thinks it is his special coffee. I just smile!
Do you have any product from CVS that you buy on a regular basis?
Debbie Denny says
I am sure Santa loved them! He is sure to come back to your house!
Debbie says
New product for me…I will check them out. My next trip to CVS I will be looking for these cookies.
Ave says
Those Vanilla Bean cookies sound delicious! We don’t have CVS here in Spain.
erica says
WE don’t have a CVS here in Juneau. It has been my experience that store brands are just as good as name brands, if not better!
Shauna says
Oh no… I have been craving a good cookie for days… man… now I need to head out to grab a package, HA!
Pam says
I bet Santa was thrilled with those cookies. I know I would have been!
Lisa says
I want ot try those Brownie Cookies.
Elizabeth @ Food Ramblings says

Cynthia L says
I often shop at CVS. I love the extra bucks and find that the CVS brand items are great.
Amanda Love says
I don’t have a CVS pharmacy near me so I won’t be able to try these delicious cookies. I loved shopping at CVS when I lived in NYC, it seemed like there was one on almost every corner. π
jenny at dapperhouse says
You know that I dont even shop CVS on a regular basis. There is one close to me, but it is on an awkward corner that is hard for me to get into and out of so I dont bother. Your post made me want to go exploring there though, so I may make a special trip up there this weekend when I am running errands and see what I have been missing. π
Amanda W says
I haven’t been to CVS in a long time, used to shop there every weekend! Those cookies look yum! I need to get back up there and see what’s new.
Liz @ A Nut in a Nutshell says
I think I’m going to have to get those maple cream cookies. I haven’t had that flavor in too long!
Brittnei says
Honestly, there are these aviator sun glasses for night vision that I saw on TV that my husband says CVS carries in their as seen on TV section. π I can see why you used these cookies.. they look amazing! π

Those brownie cookies would be my favorites too! Why can’t we have a CVS here, waaaahh!!

Santa’s never once complained of cookie offerings as far as I know. And I’m pretty ‘in the know’ about Santa!
COFFEE in cookies Yes please!

Santa was probably pretty full on cookies by the time he got to your house. Those cookies do look good. There is a CVS not that far away I will keep this in mind next time i am in a time crunch.
