Locals have much to say about where to find some of the best cookies in Tyler, Texas.

We are extremely fortunate to live in an area that does food so very well. Seriously. I've had the joy of partaking in some fabulous culinary marvels all around the country. Even so, some of my favorite food is right here at home in East Texas. And as a Tyler, Texas resident that happens to be a bit obsessed with finding the perfect cookie, I'm glad to know we have so many options.

And thankfully for me, and for fellow "cookie monsters" like me, that includes quite a few spots to pick up that ever-comforting, yummy, all-American treat most of us love so much: COOKIES.

So what are your favorites? Where can you get them specifically in Tyler, TX?

Some of us prefer thin, crisp cookies. Others want them to be soft, thick, and chewy. For some, it's more about finding the world's most perfect classic: the chocolate chip cookie. Which by the way was created via happy accident. If you'd like to learn more about that check out our article about that here.

Now, I confess--although I like chocolate chip cookies, my cookie defaults (if there are options) are first and foremost, SNICKERDOODLES.

In addition, I'm obsessed with peanut butter and macadamia nut cookies, too. And on a crisp, fall evening? Nothing beats an oatmeal raisin cookie with a cup of coffee.
