This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at App State chapter.

Every App State student knows that App Cookie Co. is the place to call when it’s 1 AM on a Saturday night and your drunk self is craving something sweet. App Cookie Co. is known for their unique, out-of-the-box cookie recipes, but they’re also home to some delicious classics as well. Anything off their menu is bound to be delicious, but these ten will definitely narrow down your order and end your Saturday night right.

10. Mint Double Chocolate Chip

Out of Thin Mints already? Not to worry, this cookie’s (dare I say it) better than Thin Mints. It’s made with huge chocolate chunks and Andes mint chips, all folded up into a rich, gooey chocolate cookie. The chocolate melts in your mouth and the mint provides a refreshing finish to this classic cookie.

9. Cheesecake

Here’s a cookie that we all know Future could get behind. Rolled in graham cracker crumbs and baked with the perfect combination of cinnamon and cream cheese, this cookie is fluffy and rich. It’s almost as good as a slice of authentic New York cheesecake (almost).

8. The Ron Swanson

As hardy and robust as its namesake, this cookie definitely isn’t for everyone. It’s made with a unique combination of maple syrup, bacon, and Jack Daniels. Mixed with the bittersweet flavor of dark chocolate chips, this cookie has a smoky flavor that’s perfect for anyone striving to live up to the Swanson legacy.

7. Red Wine Dark Chocolate

A combination of two of the best things on the planet, this cookie combines Merlot and dark chocolate to create a bold, rich flavor that will leave you wanting more. As if it couldn’t get any better, 10% of the proceeds from purchasing it go to local charity Wine to Water to provide clean drinking water around the world. This baby’s only around during the winter, so start counting down the days ’til February now.

6. Sugar

Who doesn’t love a good, old-fashioned sugar cookie? This is the perfect choice for those of you who may be wary of App Cookie Co’s more outlandish recipes. Their take on sugar cookies is simple and made with the perfect balance of sugar and vanilla.

5. Yosef

Named after everyone’s favorite Mountaineer, this cookie would definitely make him proud. It’s full of Boone’s favorite flavors, including oats, pecans, cinnamon, and apples. And, if you needed any more reason to give it a try, it’s also vegan and gluten free so everyone can enjoy its unique blend of flavors.

4. Blueberry White Chocolate Oatmeal

This cookie is definitely the richest out of everything on their menu. The sweet taste of the blueberries balances out with the white chocolate’s mellower flavors, while the oatmeal provides a perfect base for both flavors. Still not sold? It’s so good it even appeared in Paula Deen’s magazine.

3. Snickerdoodle

This is another classic flavor that’s perfect for a crisp, fall day in Boone. The cookie itself is made with sugar and cinnamon, and then is glazed over with more after it comes out of the oven. It’s as light and fluffy as a sugar cookie, but has the satisfying blend of spices that snickerdoodles are known for.

2. Pink Champagne

Another seasonal favorite, this cookie is light, sweet, and sure to satisfy any sweet tooth. It’s made with pink champagne and glazed with a light brush of sugar. The flavors come together with white chocolate chips. It’s even as airy and bubbly as real champagne, so even if your night wasn’t exactly classy, this cookie will make up for it.

1. Chocolate Chip

Did you really expect anything else to be #1? Now, we all know that all chocolate chip cookies are a gift from heaven above, but App Cookie Co. takes it to a whole other level. They’re huge and stuffed full of chocolate chunks that melt in your mouth. Plus, they’re vegan and gluten free and still taste like the food of the gods.
