I love cookies and my girlfriend loves me. For my birthday she hunted down 12 different cookies that we either have been curious to try or that have been claimed as the best at some point or another. Here are our rankings and a bracket competition. Disclaimers below:

1. We’ve had levain and insomnia before.
2. She organized them so I would not know where they were all from (with the exception of levain and insomnia)
3. We DID NOT eat each cookie entirely. Probably would have gone to the hospital. We each sampled between 1/8th to 1/4th per person.
4. All cookies were generally representative of a chocolate chip cookie (a few variations as recommended).
5. None of the cookies were reheated, all were eaten at room temperature. They were all picked up day of.
6. Cookie #1 was the insomnia cookie cake, since it covers the label on the paper.

Below is the key for the numbers in the bracket.

1. insomnia
2. schmackarys
3. levain
4. hani's
5. think coffee
6. gramercy tavern
7. from lucie
8. petit chou
9. smor
10. win son
11. librae
12. balthazar
