Calling all cookie monsters!!! We’re giving you the best places to pick up (or have delivered) some doughy discs of deliciousness. Fun fact: cookies were an accident created by bakers who used a tiny bit of cake batter to test the oven heat. It’s pretty much the definition of happy accident, but we are grateful. Pro tip: use this list to order some treats for your next holiday bash because cookies are an essential party dessert (no cake cutting, no cutlery, a perfect mobile sugar delivery system).

Maggiano’s
Known for its authentic Italian cuisine, Maggiano’s delivers a classic Italian dessert: Vera’s Lemon Cookies. These moon shaped, vanilla cookies are topped with a lemon frosting and easily melt in your mouth. An order comes with 6 cookies and its only $3.25.

Tiff’s Treats
These Snickerdoodle cookies are made with three ingredients: sugar, spice, and everything nice. A perfect balance of cinnamon and sugar, these cookies pack a sweet holiday punch. One thing Tiff’s Treats is known for – warm cookies delivered right to your door. We don’t know what we did to deserve this but we are mighty grateful.

An assortment of cookies from Piece of Cake

Piece of Cake
One of the hottest cake spots in town has also mastered the cookie. For $1.50 you can have one of their oversized chocolate chip cookies stuffed with chocolate chips and pecans. For something more adventurous (and just as delicious) you can order the Banbury Tart cookie. It’s an old fashioned butter cookie with strawberry preserves and pecans in the center.

Cacao Atlanta Chocolate Company
Oatmeal cookies are delicious on their own but when you put two together and slap some cream in between them, they are out of this world. Step aside Little Debbie, Cacao is serving up some Oatmeal Cream Pies that are a gourmet, homemade version of the classic favorite. A case of 12 cookie pies is sold for $48, but the taste is priceless.

Henri’s Bakery and Café
Henri’s is killing the cookie game with their assortment of 32 different flavors! Order a cookie platter and get the cookie variety you’re looking for. For the holiday season you can order Christmas-colored shortbread cookies that are fun, festive, and delicious. If you’re ordering for a special event be sure to give a 48-hour notice!
