There is Always an Occasion for The Cookie Company

If you know me, then you know that sweets are the best way to get to my heart. Not just any ordinary sweet will get you there. It usually takes a homemade treat, made with fresh and quality ingredients of course. The Cookie Company has never let me down. They have mastered the art of baking the most extraordinary cookies, muffins and scones in town! So when I came home after a long and stressful day and saw this…

I felt instant gratification. The mouthwatering smell of fresh baked cookies had me drooling the moment I walked in the door. My roommates and I are lucky enough to have an awesome friend to spoil us with treats from the Cookie Company.
She works at the Cookie Company’s downtown location and is so kind to treat us with their delicious treats. I knew these had to be from her.

I try to maintain a healthy and happy lifestyle, and I do so through a balance of exercise, a healthy diet, laughter and yes– sweets. Sweets are a definite weakness of mine so I give myself two rules in order to enjoy them in moderation. The first is to only allow myself to indulge in the finest treats. Not just any sweet will do. No offense to Little Debbie or Betty Crocker, but I have set my standards very high. My other rule is that it must be for a special occasion. I am not too picky with this rule. In fact, when it comes to anything from the Cookie Company, I will surely find a reason to justify its occasion.

Baked goods are my absolute favorite so when I am craving a cookie, muffin or scone, it can only be from the Cookie Company. Their quality ingredients, supplies and baking expertise deliver satisfaction in several different flavors to please any and all likings. Everything is baked fresh each morning. In fact, they are responsible for that divine aroma wafting through the streets of downtown Lincoln.
I personally love the M&M Cookie, but the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie is another solid pick. You really can’t go wrong with any of them! They are all soft, chewy, and full of flavor. They won’t crumble in your hand either. Each cookie maintains the perfect thickness to hold each ingredient together in a delightful way.

The Cookie Company also makes amazing muffins and scones! Be careful, they are addicting and they go by extremely fast! If you want one, make sure you get there early enough because they are very popular! My favorite muffin I have tried is their Blueberry Muffin. My favorite scone is the Pumpkin Scone, soft and fluffy, and lightly drizzled with a frosting that is to-die-for. The Cookie Company even makes custom cookies, custom cookie cakes and cookie bouquets! There is no better way to express your love than through a Cookie Company Cookie.

Come visit our friend Kate (the cute girl with the red curls) at the Cookie Company and you will see and taste the goodness for yourself. They are located on 138th N 12th St. in downtown Lincoln. They have another location in the lower level of Westfield Mall.
