Cookies from Teddy V’s

| Teddy V’s Pâtisserie/Facebook

by Erin Russell Updated Mar 27, 2019, 2:02pm CDT

The perfectly portable hand-held dessert, cookies are a classic everyone can enjoy. Whether sugar and frosted or fudgy chocolate, nut-free or chock-full, or even gluten-free or vegan, there is a cookie for every preference.

Satisfy that cookie craving with straightforward classics like Upper Crust Bakery, or taste the rainbow (of macarons) at Walton’s Fancy and Staple and La Patisserie. Since everything’s bigger in Texas, we’d be remiss without including Pieous’s truth-in-advertising.

This update adds Houston export Tiny Boxwoods, farmers market favorite Teddy V.’s Patisserie, Fareground’s Henbit, and Zilker bakery Thoroughbread.

While this list is skewed towards chocolate chip (the perennial favorite and honestly, superior form of cookie), respect has been paid to this sugary delight in all its glorious forms.

Indulge other baked good hankerings by exploring Austin’s best bakeries and macaron offerings.

If your favorite place missing below, let Eater know through the tipline or in the comments.
