Kitchen Sink Cookie: The Full Breakdown
Panera's Kitchen Sink Cookie is a legendary indulgence that truly lives up to its name. This massive, artisan-baked cookie is a study in contrasting textures and flavors. We pack it with semi-sweet and milk chocolate chunks, gooey caramel pieces, and crunchy pretzels. For the final, professional touch, we add a sprinkle of flake salt to perfectly balance the decadence.
It is widely considered one of the best bakery cookies in America, offering a salty-sweet experience that is impossible to resist.
