Cookie Time Bakery
Chocolate chip cookie
First off, this cookie smells phenomenal. I wish I could just bottle up this chocolate chip cookie scent: buttery pastry with that perfect toasty flour and sugar with chocolate blend. Mmm! This is a cookie made for nostalgia. The cake-like texture has a melt-in your mouth quality that reminds me of my grandpa's cookies where his 'secret ingredient' was cake flour and the baking soda gives it a light crumb, not chewy or crispy. The chocolate drizzled on top means that it's got an even distribution throughout, perfect for small bites.
When I picked up these cookies, the baker told me it was 'small for today', but it looks fantastic to me. And, yes, I ended up leaving with more than just the chocolate chip cookie - it's impossible to end up at Cookie Time and leave with less than 6!
