A soft oat cookie with a dollop of raspberry-flavored filling in the center, sold as a pack of nine boxes. We look at what's in each cookie, the coconut, and who this pack suits.
Quick verdict
Raspberry Filled is Archway's fruit cookie: a soft oat-and-coconut cookie with a dollop of raspberry-flavored filling in the middle, styled much like a thumbprint cookie. At 12 cookies per box it goes further than most of the range, and this pack holds nine boxes. Watch the allergen line, which lists coconut as a tree nut, and the artificial colors in the ingredients.

Key features, explained
A soft cookie with a fruit center
Archway describes these as delicate cookies with raspberry flavored filling spread in the center, soft baked with oats. The box shows a pale golden cookie with a ruby dollop in the middle, much like a thumbprint cookie. Of all the soft cookies in Archway's range, this is the one with built-in contrast, and Archway promises a combination of raspberry flavored filling and oats in each bite.
Oats, coconut and raspberries
The dough is more than a plain sugar cookie. After flour, sugar, oil and high fructose corn syrup come coconut and oats, then corn syrup and raspberries. Coconut that high on the list is worth knowing about, both for flavor and because it appears in the allergen statement. The filling is labeled raspberry flavored, and the box says naturally and artificially flavored, so think of it as real raspberries backed up by added flavor.
Easy to portion and share
Each box holds 12 cookies, and Archway lists them at 90 calories per cookie with 0g trans fat per serving. That's more cookies per box than Archway's 8-count oatmeal and cocoa boxes, which makes these easy to split between lunchboxes. Since this is a pack of nine 9 oz boxes, you can keep one box open and the rest sealed. The cookies are kosher, certified Orthodox Union dairy.
Ingredients and allergens
The full ingredient list is long. Alongside the flour, oats, coconut and raspberries, it includes glycerin, oat fiber, dextrose, nonfat dry milk, whole eggs, natural and artificial flavors, citric acid, preservatives (sodium propionate, potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate), gellan gum and artificial colors (Red 40, Blue 1). If you avoid synthetic dyes, this isn't your cookie. The allergen statement reads: CONTAINS: WHEAT, MILK, EGG, SOY, TREE NUTS (COCONUT).
