The Best Cookies in Toronto

The best cookies in Toronto are the stuff of childhood dreams, but the love one develops for these simple treats can last a lifetime. A straightforward enough thing - usually flour, eggs, sugar, butter plus a smattering of distinguishing ingredients like chocolate chips, raisins, oats, ginger, or peanut butter - the cookie traces its origins way back to 7th century Persia, though it wasn't made popular in North America until the late 17th century by the Scottish and Dutch.

Leave it to us to really big up the cookie game. Nostalgic remembrances of the after school special of milk and cookies, the giant cookie, the growth of the DIY bar (fro-yo to cookies), and the unfortunate trope of raw cookie dough as a desperate woman's sole comfort all contribute to designer cookie on offer here, each iteration a testimony to the cutthroat world of cookie production in this city.

Here are the best cookies in Toronto.
