Cookie or chocolate cravings? They never really go away. Whether it’s in the middle of a stressful workday or just one of those days when you need a pick-me-up, a cookie—especially a warm, gooey one—hits just right! And while supermarket shelves are stacked with packaged options, there’s just something magical about warm, home-baked cookies that taste like they were made just for you.

That’s exactly what you get with Cookie Tanter—an online home bakery run by a passionate Filipino mompreneur who started baking for her kids and ended up sharing that joy with the rest of us. Her cookies are thick, chunky, and downright addictive (in a good way), reminding us of after-school snacks and carefree weekends spent in peace and a glass of milk. They’re lovingly made from scratch using only quality ingredients like premium Belgian chocolates, butter, and walnuts. The result? A comforting, cozy-cookie experience that feels like a warm hug in dessert form.

Cookie Tanter’s cookies are hefty with each one weighing 100g. You get two delectable variants for now, both packed with melty chocolate and crunchy walnuts: There’s the Sweet two-eyed cookies made with premium Belgian milk chocolate. This variant is for those who prefer mellow, creamy sweetness. It’s kid-approved, milk-ready, and dangerously easy to finish in one sitting.

However, for those who are like me who prefer a bit of bitterness and dark chocolate, there’s the Dark one-eyed cookie with a blend of 54–70% Belgian dark chocolate. If you like your cookies rich and indulgent, the Dark cookie is made for you. It has a slightly more intense flavor without being too bitter. Ideal with coffee or for those who like a bit of depth in their dessert!

Whether it’s to reward yourself after a long day or to surprise someone you love, Cookie Tanter gives you a reason to take that well-deserved pause and much-needed sweet bite. Warm one up for 10 seconds in the microwave, and you’ve got yourself a gooey, melty bite of joy. Great for parties, weddings, or just as a chill table snack for the family, too!

Just a heads up, though: Cookie Tanter’s cookies are made fresh with real ingredients and no preservatives, so they’re best enjoyed soon after they arrive. If you can resist devouring them all at once, all you need to do is to store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days or refrigerate them to enjoy within one week.

Price and How to Order

Each cookie costs Php 125, but buying at larger quantities can save you a couple of pesos. A box of two costs Php 250, a box of six is at Php 750, while a dozen costs Php 1,500. To place an order, just DM @cookietanter on Instagram or message their Facebook page for more details.

Note: The cookies may melt a little during transpo, especially in warm weather—so if you’re not eating them right away, be sure to keep them somewhere cool!

Support small, support homemade, and most importantly, treat yourself from time to time. You deserve it.
