Long walks on the beach just wouldn’t be the same without a Cahootz cookie to share with your sweetheart. So, throw on your flip flops, grab your surfboard, and dive in to this classic cookie with a wild name. Crunchy macadamia nuts and delicate white chocolate interweave to create a tropical cookie with a hint of savory sweet flavor. Its understated look may fool a casual cookie fan but our quality ingredients are sure to satisfy a true connoisseur. We’re proud to use Barry Callebaut white chocolate which means you’ll be tasting fine Swiss chocolate in every bite. Cahootz cookies are a dream-come-true for those that long for beach life and the soothing sound of waves crashing on the shore. It’s a delicious reminder of our laid-back, beach bum lifestyle here in Santa Cruz. If you’re looking for a quick escape, then Cahootz is the cookie for you.

When you’re light on your feet, you want a sweet treat to match. Lemon Drop is a light and fluffy lemon sugar cookie with signature crispy edges and a touch of citrus flavor. Made with all natural lemon extract, it has just the right amount of sweetness without giving you a toothache. This cookie is all about keeping the right balance of sweet to tart and crispy to soft. This makes Lemon Drops the perfect match for those who want to stay balanced. Its light golden color is reminiscent of warm sunshine and makes this cookie a delight for hot summer days as well as cool winter nights. Our Lemon Drop doesn’t get weighed down with any artificial flavors or preservatives, either. With ingredients you could find in your own kitchen, these cookies are baked to taste home-made and deliver the same comfort that mom’s (or dad’s) cookies used to.

After a long day at the office, there’s no better comfort than the simple sweetness of an Oatmeal Raisin cookie. Kick off your shoes, loosen that tie, and fall into your favorite spot on the couch. Then reach for the perfect after-work pick-me-up: a chewy, fresh-baked cookie. Oatmeal and raisins come together to make the perfect guilt-free cookie that still satisfies your sweet tooth. You know there are sweeter options out there but you’re sensible when it comes to your snack choices. Our Oatmeal Raisin cookie is made with all-natural ingredients unlike all those prepackaged, hard-as-a-rock cookies you see at the grocery store. No, those name brand cookies don’t appeal to you. If you’re going to spring for something sweet, you don’t want any preservatives or processed gunk; you want something that’s hand-made with simple, clean ingredients. That something is the classic Oatmeal Raisin cookie.

Pi Day has arrived and we know the usual way to celebrate is with, well, pie obviously… While we do love some good ol’ fashioned pie we’re just a little jealous of all the attention it gets on this day.

Then we found it. The perfect recipe for saving our tumultuous relationship with that other circular dessert: Snickerdoodle Chess Pie.

Oh, yes.

This is not another one of those day-old-snickerdoodle-pie-crust recipes, either. This one actually turns Snickerdoodles into pie filling! Head on over to somethingswanky.com for the recipe and even more lovely photos of this perfect pie creation. You’ll need about a dozen cookies for the recipe, but don’t forget to pick up some extra Snickerdoodles so you have enough to snack on while baking 😉
