It is bold to claim that any one baker can come close to making the best cookies in Singapore, so we have done the duty to list 12 of them around the island.
But what makes the perfect cookie? Are they meant to be chewy or brittle? Chocolate chips or chunks? Bite-sized or as big as a frisbee? If it has a filling, should it be between the slices or inside? And what should you eat it with, milk, coffee, or tea?
Everyone is going to rally behind a different option in this Build-a-Cookie fantasy, but one thing is unanimous: cookies make for an excellent treat. Thankfully, there are bakers here who are dishing out variations of the best cookies in Singapore.
Some of them include Burnt Ends Bakery, whose sea salt dark chocolate flavour is the ideal companion to a glass of ice-cold milk. Cook’s insists on a homemade sugar blend, 48-hour aged dough, and butter that has been browned for extra long. Kooks Creamery has a cookie as large as a dinner plate and filled with a creamy ganache centre.
If you like your cookies dirty, Nasty Cookie’s version will have you licking your fingers. Old Seng Choong takes inspiration from hawker fare to make bak kut teh cookies. Then there is Resavour, which turns food waste into some of the best cookies in Singapore. Find out more below.
