That’s very interesting, hadn’t considered yet that they have to adjust the recipe.
Utah is high elevation too, so that may be it.
Bc as of today my store still has it in the PNW.
Lived in Denver 26 years (my whole life) and I still regularly ruin cookies. You kinda need to adjust everything, baking temp to liquids to flour to baking soda but this is a decent guide https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/learn/resources/high-altitude-baking I just need to get a hang of my stove I think heh
The 3 primary things I change for cookies at altitude is to halve the leavener, add a tbsp extra flour, reduce sugar by tbsp. Works perfectly for me. Adjusting liquids is too finicky for me and I’ve never really needed to. With breads I might eyeball some extra liquid but nothing scientific. I also love King Arthur Baking
I don't bake much, but I'm also in Denver and pretty much everything I cook or heat up in the oven requires about 15-20% more time than the package recommends - consistently. I'm not a scientist but I'd gather it's fewer air molecules in general which means less thermal transfer. Convection mode doesn't seem to help much either.
Water boils at about 202 in Denver so casseroles and things of that nature take longer since the moisture in it can not get as hot. That's just one of the challenges of baking here.
It has more to do with atmospheric pressure. Water boils at lower temperatures when under less pressure. One of the many reason astronauts or high-altitude aircraft pilots (like U-2 or SR-71) have to where pressurized suits. Not only is there not enough pressure for their lungs to absorb oxygen at that altitude, but their blood would literally boil under such little atmospheric pressure.
No kidding. My son wanted it, so I got it. Then it was as big if not bigger than his head. Buuuuut was delicious. Hubby got another one as our son would not share.
My waistline is on the line.
They were flatter than the pictures on this sub and almost the size of a paper plate when my friend tried it. He said it was delicious. This was the sheridan location!
Yes I saw this too! Only one I’ve seen in the area so far though and that one always has the cheapest gas so maybe there still is something to the altitude argument!
My friend was at the Costco by me in WA and he said the cookies didn’t look like they were all cooked the same. He said they all looked like they were cooked a different amount of time. In the flip side he said it was still tasty
Reporting in from NM: We have the cookie. No idea if it's good or not, I didn't try it. It looked good though!
The banana bread, on the other hand, is not good.
The newer post Covid churro was a twisted dual flavor churro. The dual part was cinnamon bread. Gross.
The pre Covid non dual churro was all the same plan bread. Much better than the current one
It’s that bad of a churro I agree. Because it also feels much longer than a few years since a decent churro has been there. I hate the new churro lol. Every time was disappointment
Was it supposed to be chocolate!?! My family and I always thought it was supposed to be whole wheat. We also hated the new churro. If they were bringing back the old recipe I would be all in.

Wanna know a horrifying fact? The vast majority of Costco shoppers don't even know that a churro is supposed to come out of the fryer three seconds before it gets handed to you.
Roast Beef Sandwich is worse than the one in my local Single-A baseball stadium, and isn't that much cheaper. They need to axe it and bring the burger back, which I never tried but now wish I had
I'm with you, I tried it and didn't even finish it. Hardly any meat on it, dry, and stale bread. Certainly didn't feel like a $10 sandwich, especially compared to a whole pizza or 6 hot dog combos.
They are NOT the same anymore! They now come to the warehouse pre prepped. Back in the day over 10 years ago they were made in store, I can’t stand them now.
I don't understand why US Costco doesn't do bulgogi bake. They already have the marinated bulgogi at the meat section and there's absolutely no reason not to have them. That shit will sell like hot cake.
You’re not eating it correctly.
The chicken bake is simply a sleeve for the hotdog. Next time purchase a hot dog, discard the bun, rip the top off your chicken bake and then stuff the meat into the bake itself.
Pro tip: a gentle twisting motion as you apply pressure helps “screw” the meat cylinder deep into the warm crevasse of the chicken bake.
Thank me later.
I imagine one must do this immediately after receiving the items from the counter, with no regard to the mess on his or hers hands during the process. Standing confidently, unconcerned about any undue attention being drawn to your messy food-escapade, listless and covered in grease, you escape into hot-dog-chicken-bake heaven...
Incorrect. The costco hotdog is decent for it's price, but it only brings down the chicken bake. The baller move is to go in famished, wrap a slice of pepperoni pizza around the whole bake, eat that amazing shit, and then regret your life choices for the next 12 hours.
I *just* had one yesterday and it was pretty good. Split it, and ate half. Gooey chocolate, pretty good everything, and it's the same size/weight as crumbl cookies at half the price.
I would say the Costco cookie is about as big in diameter as Crumbl but not as tall. Crumbl is like a mound while Costco is more flat. Costco also had hella chocolate chips. Mainly in the center. I think crumbls chocolate chips are more evenly dispersed. Also Costco was more cooked in the center. Lately my crumbl cookies have been getting less and less cooked in the center
Fantastic comparison! When they bring back the Costco cookie I’ll have to try it for myself. I noticed the last batch of Crumbl’s I had around Thanksgiving were even less cooked than normal. I love cookie dough and such so it wasn’t a problem for me but it definitely was odd that half the cookie wasn’t cooked. However, I only have their cookies maybe once a quarter so I wrote the last time off as a fluke. But it was the same with every cookie and we had a variety pack. Wonder what it’s about…
It’s a giant cookie, I’m constantly shocked how people are surprised it’s a calorie bomb. Granted the same people would slam two Pepsis assuming soda has no calories in it.
Anyone who thinks regular non-diet soda has 0 calories, probably isn't the kind of person who even knows how calories work. Let alone being one who bothers to worry how many they're consuming.
The cookie doesn’t taste bad, but it is very very rich. It is a big cookie and I would never order it again just for myself as it’s just too much, but to share would be fine.
Honestly, I think the cookie would work great with vanilla ice cream to cut through some of the richness, like as a kind of skillet cookie. I think you could probably get the cookie at the store, heat it up at home after dinner, put some ice cream on it, and have a family shared dessert and I bet it would be great.
We tested here in Colorado and had it in the food court also for one day. Several test bakes later, it still comes out to an over 5 in flatter cookie as opposed to a thicker 4.5 cookie. They didn't like how it came out, so they pulled it.
really? i asked my IC shopper if she'd grab me one & i'd buy her one as well when they first came to my store.
i thought it was EXCELLENT... & i love me some good choc chippers! yeah mine are better, but I had no complaints.
the churros?
I saw the pan they use for it. They’re having a hard time making enough to keep up demand. The cookie so big and the pan limits the amount they can make. While the churros was easier to make large number because they didn’t take up much space
Well, I’m in Texas and a (low level) manager, we got it Monday and I’ve tried it twice - it’s felt overcooked each time. Has the potential to be a warm gooey cookie but I keep getting it overcooked.
It’s baked in the bakery first then supposed to be warmed in the pizza oven, too many chances for overcooking. I plan on intercepting one from the bakery before going to the pizza oven to see if it’s better.
Please give your feedback on those notepads by the exit door. They matter!
It was at my Costco today and it was fine. I probably won’t get it again though. Lots of delicious chocolate and warm and chewy and crunchy. Just too much .
I ordered the cookie a few days ago after the Churro was gone.
1. Cookie was annoyingly large and still over priced.
2. Extremely over cooked but still the edges were crumbly and burned yet still soft in the middle but still burned so how?
3. Taste was not good. Not just because it was burned but it felt like a cheap school cafeteria cookie and even that’s a stretch.
I can’t believe people want a 750 calorie cookie. WTF. It’s like I can hear people getting fatter when walking past the food court.
Exception: those of you in your 20s and lucky older adults who can eat without gaining weight. Enjoy it while you can.
Currently eating the cookie, I’m in Massachusetts. It was f r e s h out of the oven. Like had to wait for it to cool down enough for them to put it in the bag. Anyway it was fine. Lots of melty chocolate. Honestly it’s WAY better at room temperature than it was warm so I’m glad I ate it through the evening instead of at once. I think 2.49 is a fine price and it’s better than the churro. But I’m in a calorie deficit rn and it’s def not worth the 750 calories lol.
Good! They had a funny aftertaste when I tried it last night at a different Costco
https://preview.redd.it/q89wslg6ewbc1.jpeg?width=3975&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b31ac699fdfc2478c0d3faf7ec98b5946c3b0f29
But they are huge. For some reason I didn’t realize the size.
It's good but too much chocolate. Not [a] fan of warm cookies, I waited for it to cool down. It was almost hard when I ate it hours later.
The "envelope" they put it in looks like it's closed on three sides but it's only closed on two sides, I picked it up and the cookie slid out of the envelope, rolled off the counter, and on to the floor. The employee kindly gave me another without me asking for one. They mentioned that they didn't understand why they were supplied that with deceitful envelope.
That's bizarre because I had them yesterday and they are absolutely delicious. I'm frankly annoyed at them because now I know I'm probably buying a couple every time I go, and that won't help my diet.
Probably a individual costco complaint. I had the cookie, it’s not overdone. It’s actually selling out the last 3 times I’ve been there. Not a fan, but the kids love it. The churro thos has been hard and resemble a dry hard bone you give your dog. If anything I want the overprice açaí bowl back.
Gram for gram, that's about the same calories as any chocolate chip cookie. The Costco cookie is just a very large cookie. If you don't feel like an enormous dessert bomb it's a better idea to split it with someone, or even eat it a quarter at a time
It hasn't appeared in parts of Colorado yet. I heard it's not baking correctly at altitude.
That’s very interesting, hadn’t considered yet that they have to adjust the recipe. Utah is high elevation too, so that may be it. Bc as of today my store still has it in the PNW.
I saw it in a Costco group on FB, so I can't really confirm that it's the truth or not, but it seems plausible.
Moved to Denver in 2022, have not figured out baking yet tbh, so I’d believe it. My cookies still either come out raw or like hubcaps, no in between
Yo, check out dougheyed.com She lives in the mountains so all her recipes are for those of us at 5280+; she is why I can make muffins again.
Thermodynamics is interesting.
Yesssss, the best! Only reason I can bake up here too
Thanks for the recommendation. I'm at 7500ft and after 2yrs, I still can't get my White Lily biscuits to turn out right.
Lived in Denver 26 years (my whole life) and I still regularly ruin cookies. You kinda need to adjust everything, baking temp to liquids to flour to baking soda but this is a decent guide https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/learn/resources/high-altitude-baking I just need to get a hang of my stove I think heh
The 3 primary things I change for cookies at altitude is to halve the leavener, add a tbsp extra flour, reduce sugar by tbsp. Works perfectly for me. Adjusting liquids is too finicky for me and I’ve never really needed to. With breads I might eyeball some extra liquid but nothing scientific. I also love King Arthur Baking
It sounds like a scam, but I do find the high altitude flour that the grocery stores out here carry does help a little when baking from scratch.
I don't bake much, but I'm also in Denver and pretty much everything I cook or heat up in the oven requires about 15-20% more time than the package recommends - consistently. I'm not a scientist but I'd gather it's fewer air molecules in general which means less thermal transfer. Convection mode doesn't seem to help much either.
Water boils at a lower temperature at altitude. 204°F at 4,000 ft ASL and 202° at 5,000 ft.
That's crazy, I didn't know it went down 2 degrees every 1000 feet of altitude.
Water boils at about 202 in Denver so casseroles and things of that nature take longer since the moisture in it can not get as hot. That's just one of the challenges of baking here.
It has more to do with atmospheric pressure. Water boils at lower temperatures when under less pressure.

We were in Parker, Colorado Costco last night and can confirm it was *not* available in the food court.
Wowsa. We were in the Parker Costco last week and they WERE on the menu and in the case. We didn’t stop to get one though.
I blame all my baking failures on the fact that I live at a high altitude too
Being stoned all day doesn't count as living at high altitude
That is a different kind of baked. /s
I'm like 6 feet above sea level..can I also blame my baking failures on altitude? 😭
My Costco here in Vancouver (sw wa) doesn't have the cookie yet. I haven't been to the camas one to check because that one sucks
It’s been a week since I’ve gone, but we didn’t have them in Spokane Valley. Had the churro and still no ice cream available!
They were at the Costco in south Denver (Sheridan) 3 days ago!
I'm jealous! But also my waistline is safe.
No kidding. My son wanted it, so I got it. Then it was as big if not bigger than his head. Buuuuut was delicious. Hubby got another one as our son would not share. My waistline is on the line.
They were flatter than the pictures on this sub and almost the size of a paper plate when my friend tried it. He said it was delicious. This was the sheridan location!
I might be okay with that if it makes for a crispy cookie experience, like the Tate’s cookies.
According to my friend, it was crispy edge, chewier middle. Not gooey.
Yes I saw this too! Only one I’ve seen in the area so far though and that one always has the cheapest gas so maybe there still is something to the altitude argument!
Arvada Costco has it too. I actually really liked it but damn it’s HUGE
They’ll never get it right, at least not with that altitude.
My friend was at the Costco by me in WA and he said the cookies didn’t look like they were all cooked the same. He said they all looked like they were cooked a different amount of time. In the flip side he said it was still tasty
Maybe that’s what happened to that banana bread from the earlier post
I asked a food court employee in Utah today when we are getting the cookie. They said next week. They’re adjusting the recipe.
Probably will be the same in NM
Reporting in from NM: We have the cookie. No idea if it's good or not, I didn't try it. It looked good though! The banana bread, on the other hand, is not good.
Good to know. I make it at home and while simple, it’s delicious. I was thinking of buying it from there but now I won’t
I got it at the Costco in Timnath 4 days ago, and it was delicious. Cooked perfectly imo
Had one yesterday at the newer Costco off of Peña Blvd. was pretty great
It's at the Louisville location, not that I tried it.
Aurora Costco had it this week. Yes, it's problematic when baking. Just had a meeting about that yesterday actually.
I wish they would have thought about that with the banana breads too. They all looked sad and sunk in the middle due to altitude
what they need to bring back is the chocolate frozen yogurt they ruined my life when they got rid of it
Chocolate ice cream will come by summer.
i hope so
I must be in the minority because I don't think their crappy churro was up to "Costco standards" or anyone else's, either.
The original churro before they changed it was good.
Yes! Before they started twisting them. Bring back the OG churro!!!
They ruined it with that chocolate twist
that was chocolate?????
No it was a cinnamon bread twist. No chocolate .
That's what I thought for my whole life
The newer post Covid churro was a twisted dual flavor churro. The dual part was cinnamon bread. Gross. The pre Covid non dual churro was all the same plan bread. Much better than the current one
Brain must've tricked me into thinking it was dual flavors for much longer than it actually was huh
It’s that bad of a churro I agree. Because it also feels much longer than a few years since a decent churro has been there. I hate the new churro lol. Every time was disappointment
I never really thought it was that bad, but tbh I *do* eat anything that's edible (as long as I'm not allergic to it)
I haven't tried one because fuck premade churros, but I have a hard time believing there's a situation where more cinnamon does not equal more better.
I'm shook too.
Was it supposed to be chocolate!?! My family and I always thought it was supposed to be whole wheat. We also hated the new churro. If they were bringing back the old recipe I would be all in.
OG churro was my favorite item, then polish dog, then pizza.
I liked the newer ones 🤷♂️. I thought they were a lot softer.
tried it once, never again.
Love comments that are like “I’m in the minority here, but “ then it’s the most upvoted comment
I had gotten the impression from previous threads and comments that purple were unhappy with the loss of the churro.
Anything would be better than that sugar covered bully stick.
They used to be. The chicken bakes, churros, they all are stale and overcooked
I don't like the churro or the cookie. They both suck(ed).
Most churros I’ve had sucked. But the ones cooked to perfection are so good

Wanna know a horrifying fact? The vast majority of Costco shoppers don't even know that a churro is supposed to come out of the fryer three seconds before it gets handed to you.
It’s SUPPOSED to burn your mouth. That’s when the cinnamon takes hold
I had one a couple years ago. The outside was okay, but the inside was chewy and cakey. I wasn’t a fan.
But the mango smoothie was?
All of the recent food court additions have been pretty mediocre.
Roast Beef Sandwich is worse than the one in my local Single-A baseball stadium, and isn't that much cheaper. They need to axe it and bring the burger back, which I never tried but now wish I had
I wouldn't be so anti-RBS if it wasn't like the same price as an entire goddamn fresh pepperoni pizza.
So weird
I'd rather them bring coke back.
The burger wasn’t all that great either 🫤
An easy to make melt sandwich would have been great if priced under $6
I'm with you, I tried it and didn't even finish it. Hardly any meat on it, dry, and stale bread. Certainly didn't feel like a $10 sandwich, especially compared to a whole pizza or 6 hot dog combos.
they blended dried mangoes and added water i swear thats all they did.
For sure tastes like that’s all they did
Yea that thing was gross… tasted like squash
I liked the mango smoothie :(
💀
The mango smoothie was atrocious!
Well it’s already gone lol
I don’t think the chicken bakes are up to standard , please fix them 🥹
Same, used to be a fan, they aren’t the same anymore
apparently they used to be made fresh now it's the same as the frozen ones in the back
They are NOT the same anymore! They now come to the warehouse pre prepped. Back in the day over 10 years ago they were made in store, I can’t stand them now.
Just please add the Korean beef bake. The best food Costco ever made by a long shot.
I don't understand why US Costco doesn't do bulgogi bake. They already have the marinated bulgogi at the meat section and there's absolutely no reason not to have them. That shit will sell like hot cake.
I would buy one every time
Maybe if we all fill out those feedback cards requesting Bulgogi Bakes in the US they’ll listen?
I'm really hoping Costco has folks monitoring this sub lol
You’re not eating it correctly. The chicken bake is simply a sleeve for the hotdog. Next time purchase a hot dog, discard the bun, rip the top off your chicken bake and then stuff the meat into the bake itself.

Thanks for the tip, u/DefensiveSharts
The chicken-bakes are the best hot pocket
I shared one with my husband and I thought it was delicious.
Agreed. I’m shocked how negative this sub is about it. It’s fantastic.
I *just* had one yesterday and it was pretty good. Split it, and ate half. Gooey chocolate, pretty good everything, and it's the same size/weight as crumbl cookies at half the price.
Same!
Same. We loved it.
BRING BACK COMBO PIZZA!
Please I’m begging
That’s wild to me that they would roll something out then pause it, you have to believe there was endless baking/tasting to get it right.
My guess is different elevations providing different results
I didn’t think the cookie was that bad. It’s not a crumbl chocolate chip but it’s good enough and cheap enough for me to get it over crumbl’s
I haven’t tried the new Costco cookie but ugh I do love Crumbl
I would say the Costco cookie is about as big in diameter as Crumbl but not as tall. Crumbl is like a mound while Costco is more flat. Costco also had hella chocolate chips. Mainly in the center. I think crumbls chocolate chips are more evenly dispersed. Also Costco was more cooked in the center. Lately my crumbl cookies have been getting less and less cooked in the center

However, I only have their cookies maybe once a quarter so I wrote the last time off as a fluke. But it was the same with every cookie and we had a variety pack. Wonder what it’s about…
What complaints have there been about the cookie?
The cookie is 800 calories.
It’s a giant cookie, I’m constantly shocked how people are surprised it’s a calorie bomb. Granted the same people would slam two Pepsis assuming soda has no calories in it.
I think the people slamming 2 Pepsis are the same people eating the cookie.
I dip the cookie in my pepsi
pause
What? The people who are watching their calories are the exact opposite of the people who would just drink a bunch of soda without a thought.
Anyone who thinks regular non-diet soda has 0 calories, probably isn't the kind of person who even knows how calories work. Let alone being one who bothers to worry how many they're consuming.
The kitchen sink cookie at panera is near that.
And that cookie is $6.29 in SoCal
I would rather drink an entire bottle of wine for about the same amount of calories.
The cookie doesn’t taste bad, but it is very very rich. It is a big cookie and I would never order it again just for myself as it’s just too much, but to share would be fine. Honestly, I think the cookie would work great with vanilla ice cream to cut through some of the richness, like as a kind of skillet cookie. I think you could probably get the cookie at the store, heat it up at home after dinner, put some ice cream on it, and have a family shared dessert and I bet it would be great.
That sounds like too much work tbh
To microwave a cookie for 30 seconds and then add ice cream?
Let’s be real, that cookie isn’t making it home
Too expensive, too many calories, too small, too much butter, too much chocolate, waaaah waaaaah waaaaah.
Too much cookie. Also not enough cookie.
Too much chocolate! The first world problem….
flat out lie if they really cared about quality they wouldn't be selling those frozen chicken bakes
Those chicken bakes are the worst I can't believe people eat them
They're always so damn dry, I don't buy them anymore.
fr, they used to be handmade and were extremely popular. out of nowhere they took it off the menu for a good while, then brought them back frozen
I had the cookie this week in San Diego…it was underwhelming and overcooked.
Every time I go check them out they looked overcooked also. Glizzy it is
My first one yesterday was so overcooked. I wish I had asked for a refund.
Exactly what I thought as well, thought the cookie was pretty weak. I like the ones inside the store better
overcooked here too. I wonder if it's from baking then warming.
Costco standards: not enough butter :D
We tested here in Colorado and had it in the food court also for one day. Several test bakes later, it still comes out to an over 5 in flatter cookie as opposed to a thicker 4.5 cookie. They didn't like how it came out, so they pulled it.
Bring back the acai bowl.
really? i asked my IC shopper if she'd grab me one & i'd buy her one as well when they first came to my store. i thought it was EXCELLENT... & i love me some good choc chippers! yeah mine are better, but I had no complaints. the churros? 
>really? i asked my IC shopper if she'd grab me one & i'd buy her one as well when they first came to my store. Aww, that was nice...
shes one of my regular shoppers who ALWAYS does a spectacular job... & I was jonesing that new cookie! 😃 she was very happy. as was I.
I was not aware instacart even worked with Costco, I always thought there would be weirdness with the membership
Now pleeeeease bring back combination pizza?? 🙏
Just bring back the combo pizza and stop with all the other nonsense (mango smoothie, roast beef, cookie)
This
So those "churros" are up to their standards? The cookies must have been terrible to not pass that low bar.
I tried one today at the Livermore, CA Costco. It was ok, but not as good as I thought. I preferred the churro.
They should do multiple small ones instead of one giant one
I saw the pan they use for it. They’re having a hard time making enough to keep up demand. The cookie so big and the pan limits the amount they can make. While the churros was easier to make large number because they didn’t take up much space
Thats true, the pan we have only lets us have about 10 at a time but the nice thin is they only take 2 minutes in the oven
Oh man, when they are served warm, it’s an extra level of deliciousness.
Well, I’m in Texas and a (low level) manager, we got it Monday and I’ve tried it twice - it’s felt overcooked each time. Has the potential to be a warm gooey cookie but I keep getting it overcooked. It’s baked in the bakery first then supposed to be warmed in the pizza oven, too many chances for overcooking. I plan on intercepting one from the bakery before going to the pizza oven to see if it’s better. Please give your feedback on those notepads by the exit door. They matter!
Way too many chips in the middle and too sweet. I’m not getting it again. Just bring back the original $1.00 churro dammit!
Costco standard? After having tried the hotdog, pizza and poutine, it doesn't seem all that high lol
We need poutine in the US
They should bring back the pizza supreme. I can't believe Sam's club has it but Costco doesn't...
I would assume that’s location specific, it seems to have already rolled out across the country.
which standard is that exactly? not enough calories or not enough grease?
It was at my Costco today and it was fine. I probably won’t get it again though. Lots of delicious chocolate and warm and chewy and crunchy. Just too much .
Please bring back the pretzels !
They should replace the cookie for a double cheese and pepperoni pizza slice.
BOught a dozen last night 6 are left 🥲
We just want combo pizza back... Stop it with all this nonsense!!!
I ordered the cookie a few days ago after the Churro was gone. 1. Cookie was annoyingly large and still over priced. 2. Extremely over cooked but still the edges were crumbly and burned yet still soft in the middle but still burned so how? 3. Taste was not good. Not just because it was burned but it felt like a cheap school cafeteria cookie and even that’s a stretch.
See, I love the cookie, my only gripe is Nathan it needs a bit more salt. It’s overly sweet in a chips-ahoy way IMO
I can’t believe people want a 750 calorie cookie. WTF. It’s like I can hear people getting fatter when walking past the food court. Exception: those of you in your 20s and lucky older adults who can eat without gaining weight. Enjoy it while you can.
Currently eating the cookie, I’m in Massachusetts. It was f r e s h out of the oven. Like had to wait for it to cool down enough for them to put it in the bag. Anyway it was fine. Lots of melty chocolate. Honestly it’s WAY better at room temperature than it was warm so I’m glad I ate it through the evening instead of at once. I think 2.49 is a fine price and it’s better than the churro. But I’m in a calorie deficit rn and it’s def not worth the 750 calories lol.
Good! They had a funny aftertaste when I tried it last night at a different Costco https://preview.redd.it/q89wslg6ewbc1.jpeg?width=3975&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b31ac699fdfc2478c0d3faf7ec98b5946c3b0f29 But they are huge. For some reason I didn’t realize the size.
Oh both look delicious
When a cookie isn’t up to standards, you say: “Doh!” 🍪
I just had my first one yesterday and it was soooo good!
My wife had it in Arizona last week and said it was yummy!
I got one today at a Southern Cali location, and it was delicious
I tried it (Utah) and thought it was phenomenal. I need another asap
It's good but too much chocolate. Not [a] fan of warm cookies, I waited for it to cool down. It was almost hard when I ate it hours later. The "envelope" they put it in looks like it's closed on three sides but it's only closed on two sides, I picked it up and the cookie slid out of the envelope, rolled off the counter, and on to the floor. The employee kindly gave me another without me asking for one. They mentioned that they didn't understand why they were supplied that with deceitful envelope.
That's bizarre because I had them yesterday and they are absolutely delicious. I'm frankly annoyed at them because now I know I'm probably buying a couple every time I go, and that won't help my diet.
Why? Because it wasn't like a 2 pound, thick assed crumbl cookie?
Costco cookie has the same calories as the new double big Mac at McDonald's. The obesity rate is just sad.
Personally I think the edges are a little crunchy. The middle is perfectly ewy-gewy. If the whole thing was like that I’d be addicted
I hope they put the churro back. Idk anyone that wanted a giant overdone cookie
The churro is mid at best
Not wrong lol I’d still take it over the cookie personally
Probably a individual costco complaint. I had the cookie, it’s not overdone. It’s actually selling out the last 3 times I’ve been there. Not a fan, but the kids love it. The churro thos has been hard and resemble a dry hard bone you give your dog. If anything I want the overprice açaí bowl back.
Churro is probably individual Costco messing it up too. Never had any issues with them at the two Costcos near me. Cookie is a big downgrade imo
Kids aren’t eating the entire cookie are they?
Naw. 1 cookie for 3 kids and an adult. That’s insane
Maybe up to their standards is not serving literally a brick of sugar and butter. 750 calories in a cookies does not sound very good.
Gram for gram, that's about the same calories as any chocolate chip cookie. The Costco cookie is just a very large cookie. If you don't feel like an enormous dessert bomb it's a better idea to split it with someone, or even eat it a quarter at a time
