Rooster 14 Cookie Company

Best chocolate chip cookie in Atlanta? Maybe... that's a Sophie's Choice sort of decision for me, so I'm not ready to make that call just yet. The Rooster Cookie has a cultish following in Atlanta, and that's obvious if you've ever driven to multiple markets looking for them only to see the empty cookie jars at each stop. I used to know every spot in town that sold them, for just that purpose, but thankfully they've increased their points of sale and you can find them at multiple Savi Provisions and even an Ace Hardware now. The cookies are a mix of shortbread-meets-cookie-dough-vibes, so Tollhouse purists be warned. They're big and sweet and decadent. Despite being sealed in plastic, they're best eaten fresh (-ish, you're not gonna find these hot out of the oven), so don't buy it and save it for another day. If you love cookies, put this one on your list to try!
