Maryland Thins Salted Caramel Cookies

The thins family has grown and now Maryland Cookies have jumped on the bandwagon with two new additions, Milk & Dark Chocolate and Salted Caramel. I know some people are not a fan of the thins but I very much enjoyed the Oreo and McVitie’s versions, so I was very much looking forward to these Salted Caramel Maryland Thins.

Today’s review is all about their new Spectacular Speculicious Praline Cups* and Heavenly Whole Hazelnut Praline Cups*.
