| - "Cocktails Served Baked, Not Stirred."
This is a tag line from The Cookie Bar's website since they specialize in alcohol-infused baked goods. After reading reviews by Michael U. and Trev W. I knew that I wanted to partake in of some of the offerings, too. The good news for someone like me who doesn't drink that much alcohol is the Cookie Bar's items come in non-alcoholic versions, as well. I went in on a recent Saturday morning right after the Cookie Bar opened at 11:00am. A kiosk inside the Cannery West building, just look for the Oasis Car Wash on East Flamingo. If you go on a weekend like me, you'll probably see the car wash's customers milling around waiting for their car to be done; they were all over the parking lot and in front of the building that at first I thought there was a protest occurring. Wendy, the Cookie Bar owner, was very helpful and gave me the great news that Saturday is buy one, get one free day--oh, happy day! Not only did I get the Buzz Kill cookies for free with my Yelp check-in, but I also only paid $9 total and walked out with 5 items in my box of sugar.
Buzz Kill: two fat chocolate chip cookies w/ dark, semi-sweet, and milk chocolate chips. These were the free cookies via Yelp check-in, fresh and tasty classic cookies.
Twisted Krispie: A big, dense Rice Krispie treat on a stick: browned butter, sea salt, white chocolate. This tasted a little too salty for me.
Tipsy Velvet: two red velvet chocolate chip cookies with white, dark, milk, and semi-sweet chocolate chips with a white chocolate drizzle on top. I got these for my son, the red velvet fan. He let me sample and I liked it very much with all the different chips in there. I would buy these again.
Mug Shot: a root beer butter cookie w/ buttercream frosting. I gave this to my co-worker, so I don't know if it's good or not.
PB Kitchen Sink: chocolate chip cookie bottom, peanut butter cup middle, fudge brownie top. This I got for the peanut butter-loving boyfriend and he loved it. They have one called the Oreo Kitchen Sink that I want to try next time.
This is a great local small business offering up some tasty desserts; I'll be back to try more of their other items soon. Maybe I'll get my car washed, too.
