Cookies; have you ever met anyone who doesn’t like them? Whether you have a sweet tooth or not, cookies probably hold a close place in your heart. In our eyes, cookies are the dessert. When someone talks about baking, you immediately think about cookies. If you need to add a delicious scent to a room, you bake cookies. One of the first things you learn how to bake is typically Chocolate Chunk Cookies. They make a delicious host or house warming gift, perfect for someone who needs a cheer-up and are the ultimate childhood treat. The point is, there’s a lot of memories tied to cookies.

Rocky Road Cookies are one of our all time favourites. They’re super decadent, packed full of chocolate with a medley of textures. The dough holds a good structure, but still spreads just enough to make a chewy finished cookie with a beautiful crispy outside. Chocolate is literally the answer for everything, so we don’t know what your waiting for, make these already! If you love chocolate as much as we do, the you’ll love these cookies. They hardly last an hour after baking in the TMG kitchen. No matter how big of a batch we make, they almost always disappear the same day.

Kept in an air-tight container these cookies can last for 3-5 days on your counter. Not going to eat them all just yet? Freeze them! Cookies freeze so well that you can opt to freezer at the dough step or even after they’ve been baked. We promise that they won’t taste like they’ve been frozen at all.
