This Year’s Holiday Oreos Look Like Santa Himself Designed Them

Milk’s favorite cookie might soon be Santa’s favorite cookie. Like the Poppi Cranberry Fizz and Kit Kat’s Santa-shaped wafers, Oreo has created its own Christmassy treat. This year’s limited edition Oreos are as cute as can be, and I’ll be eating them all season long. For the first time ever, the creme filling has two colors—red and green—and the cookies themselves have five holiday imprints.

You’ll find candy cane, gingerbread man, penguin, snowman and Rudolph Oreo designs. The center of every cookie has a little dot of red creme filling, too!

Where can I find the holiday Oreos?

Though they’re somewhat hard to find, the new Oreos have been available since November 1 at Target and Walmart. You can purchase the holiday Oreos in 14-count lay-down bags, 45-count stand-up bags or 4-count king-size packs. Every cookie is individually wrapped (similar to a Reese’s cup on a little paper tray), so these will be super easy to use as stocking stuffers or to lay out for Santa to take on the go. They’re available while supplies last.

I spent a good chunk of time tracking down the red and green cookies, but I had no trouble finding the red creme-filled cookies. These holiday morsels also have five Christmas-themed designs, just with one color in the filling and no red creme dotting the outside of the cookie.

What do the holiday Oreos taste like?

The holiday Oreo packaging says that they have the same taste as the original sandwich cookie, and I have to agree. At first, I thought they had a slightly sweeter taste, but maybe it’s just the festive coloring playing games with my taste buds. Either way, I wish they came by the sleeveful so I didn’t have to individually unwrap four (or five or six) cookies at a time.

If you buy the big bag, use the colorful cookies to make Oreo desserts, like a Christmas-themed no-bake Oreo cheesecake!
