Mother’s Cookies Return!


mothers.jpgGreat news, Mother’s Cookies are back!  I had previously shared with you here the sad news that Mother’s Cookies was going out of business in October 2008 when the company filed bankruptcy.  The California institution was thankfully saved by Kellogg’s, who bought the rights to the trademarks and recipes.

Mother’s cookies made their return to stores near me (Los Angeles, California) in early May, just in time for Mother’s Day.  According to the Mother’s Cookies website the following varieties are now available:

Circus Animals
Chocolate Chip
Coconut Cocadas
Double Fudge
English Tea
Iced Lemonade
Iced Oatmeal
Macaroons
Oatmeal
Taffy
Vanilla Crèmes

I picked up some of the Iced Oatmeal, Taffy and Macaroons to see if the newly released cookies would stand up to the old versions.  I am pleased to say that I do not believe Kellogg’s altered the original recipes, as the cookies tasted just the way I remembered.

If you have been missing Mother’s Cookies, you may want to check your local stores to see if Mother’s Cookies have made a reappearance in your area.

Welcome back! Our family has been eating Mother’s cookies since the 70’s. Needless to say, we were devastated when they went out of business. We are so happy to have you back.

Thanks, Kellog.
