About a month ago, I purchased the Resy Cookie Box, which is comprised of cookies from restaurants all over the country and that was baked and packaged by Milk Bar.  I have finally eaten all the cookies and here are my thoughts on each. I am going to list the name of the cookie, restaurant, location, and chef. (The Milk Bar link has photos of each of the cookies.)

Yuzu Espresso Martini Cookie – Double Chicken Please – New York – Faye Chen & GN Chan

Very strong coffee taste. Not sweet.

Hot Cocoa Cookie – Milk Bar – USA – Christina Tosi

Chocolately and sweet. Forgot it would have marshmallow (which I hate) but could not taste it.

Peppermint Crinkle Cookie – Girl & the Goat – Chicago & Los Angeles – Stephanie Izard

Very chocolately and pepperminty. Small pieces of candy cane throughout.

Gochugaru Black Sesame Cookie – Baroo – Los Angeles – Kwang Uh

Not sweet. Heat.

Grinchy Pandan Cookie – Hai Hai – Minneapolis – Christina Nguyen

Delicious but very sweet.

Tahini Pistachio Chocolate Chunk Cookie – Mandolin Aegean Bistro – Miami – Anthony Galleno

Delicious. Chocolate taste but did not taste pistachio.

Scottish Oatmeal Currant Cookie – Nàdair – Atlanta – Kevin Gillespie

Mid-cookie got a soapy taste. Disappointed because Gillespie is one of my favorite Top Chef chefs.

Mexican Wedding Cookie – Mi Tocaya Antojería – Chicago – Diana Dávila

Delicious. Not too sweet. Cinnamon-y.

Nankhatai Cookie – Rasika – Washington, DC – Vikram Sunderam

Delicious. Sweet. Vanilla. Nutty taste.

Furikake Popcorn Cookie – Liholiho Yacht Club – San Francisco – Ravi Kapur

More I ate, the more it tasted like vegetables.

S’Mores Cookie – Friday Saturday Sunday – Philadelphia – Amanda Rafalski

Graham cracker taste; not enough chocolate taste. Two blobs of marshmallow were okay.

Sweetbun Cookie – Saltie Girl – Boston & Los Angeles – Ben Sidell

Very sweet.

The delicious cookies were really delicious. I assumed it would be hit and miss. And, of course, what I prefer may not be others’ preferences.

Also, it was fun trying different tastes in cookies. I tend towards chocolate cookies, so trying ingredients I’m not familiar with made me want to try something with those ingredients again.
