This probably has something to do with the chocolate filling in the middle. It was also a darker shade of brown than you\u2019d expect.<\/p>\n<p>The original melon pan had a melon flavour to it, which is a popular addition to melon pan at the moment.

Since melon pan are made with an outer layer of crunchy cookie and fluffy bread inside, I expected similar textures from these cookies. There was a layer of sugar on top, just like melon pan have. The cookie itself was crumbly, the inside tasted a bit old and moist.<\/p>\n<p>I can\u2019t say I loved these cookies, they were okay but they weren\u2019t amazingly flavourful.
