Tomorrow, December 4, is National Cookie Day.  How lucky for us!  Last week it was National Cake Day and this week it’s all about cookies.  Haha!!!  I said last week that I have a love of cake but I equally have a love for cookies (maybe even more so).  I prefer a soft chewy type of cookie as opposed to a hard, crispy cookie.  What about you? Well, I apologize in advance for the added calories!  Here is a list of places to grab some amazing cookies in and around West County.  Many of these places were great for cakes too.  Enjoy!!

• Bello’s Bakery in Des Peres: A popular bakery in Des Peres that has delicious, large decorated sugar cookies.  They are an Italian bakery as well so they have lots of different types of butter and tea cookies as well.  Your standard chocolate chip, oatmeal, M&M cookies are also there and so yummy.  https://www.bellosbakery.com/
• Sarah’s Cake Shop in Chesterfield & Eureka: Well known for their cakes, cake pops and cupcakes and do a great wedding cake business.  But they have these really big cookies that they call “Big Cookie” and come in Chocolate Chip, Chocolate Chewy Goodness, Confetti, and Everyday Wedding Cake flavors.
