If you’re in Jeddah and craving a sweet treat, head to the recently opened Cookie Boo in Hayy Jameel.
One of the highlights is how they serve their cookies: warm, gooey chocolate chip cookies with ice-cold milk. It’s the ideal pairing, especially when you dip the warm cookie into the chilly milk for the ultimate bite. And if you’re vegan, they’ve got you covered with coconut milk and almond milk options.
Aside from the classics, they also offer some unique stuffed cookies that are worth trying. Their matchy matcha cookies, stuffed with cream cheese and raspberries, are a delicious blend of sweet and tangy.
The crazy chocolate cookie is a chocolate lover’s dream, filled with cream cheese and dark and white chocolate. The caramel crunch cookie, filled with caramelized chocolate, will be satisfying especially if you’re a caramel lover.
If you enjoy baking at home, you can buy frozen cookie dough and bake fresh cookies for your loved ones. The dough, which costs SR55 ($14), is enough to make eight cookies.
I tried the stuffed cookie box, which allowed me to sample three flavors. Cookie Boo also offers a box of six classic chocolate chip cookies with two sauces.
To complement their cookies, Cookie Boo’s menu features regular and iced coffees, as well as matcha lattes. I opted for a matcha latte with coconut milk, although the additional SR5 charge was a bit of a downside.
Cookie Boo also sells matcha powder, tote bags and T-shirts featuring their funky cookie mascot and other fun designs.
