The cookie, that mainstay of comfort food
confectionery, has recently been the subject
of a few makeovers. Evolving the ultimate
comfort-food pairing, cookies and milk,
Dominique Ansel, the inventor of the cronut,

Thinly lined with chocolate, the lightly baked
cookie-dough shot glasses are served with
cold milk at his various outposts. New York’s
modestly named World’s Best Cookie Dough
serves up cookies and cookie dough in most
forms, from sandwiched with ice cream to

combined with brownie mix (brookie dough).

Across the pond in London, Naked Dough

ofers a variety of cookie dough lavours

served in a tub, in a cone or as a freakshake,

all with impossibly kitsch branding. Blondies

Kitchen’s mission was to bring the authentic

American cookie, all crunch on the outside

and yielding chew on the inside, to the UK.

They did that with knobs on, making, among

other things, giant Jammie Dodger-laced

cookies and cookie pizzas. Finally, we don’t

know if we can really condone this, but it is

a thing: deep-fried cookie dough, served

crinkle-cut or as balls. Cookie Dõ NYC is a

respectable enough purveyor of lavoured

doughs in Greenwich Village – this year

popping up at Brooklyn’s weekly outdoor

food market Smorgasburg to serve the fried

chocolate chip, cake batter or brownie batter

balls. Well, if you can fry a Mars Bar...
