Paradise Bakery - Cookie Hunt

Currently running unopposed in the race for the ultimate chocolate chip cookie is Paradise Bakery & Café. I can see why Tollhouse and Mrs Fields are hesitant to compete.

Cookies baked fresh on location. You can smell them from a mile away.

You can’t judge a book by its cover, but you can definitely judge a cookie by its looks-like-homemade-ness. Who wants to eat a cookie that looks like it came straight out of a box? (Single exception: Girl Scout cookies.)

After examining its beautiful asymmetrical shape comes the bend-and-squish test. Crunchy on the edges and soft in the middle. Paradise cookie, I give you an A+.

Mmm, me like cooookie.

Finally, it’s delicious. And there’s so many different kinds! Peanut butter, white chocolate chip macadamia nut, and something mysterious with everything on it that has no name. Coconut chocolate chip is my personal favorite – just add milk, and you’ve got yourself a little taste of heaven.

And that’s the way the cookie crumbles.
