When I arrived at the bakery around 2:45 p.m., there was no line for the Cookie Shot, yet the bakery staff told me I had to wait outside for it anyway. Only about five people lined up behind me by the time the cookie service started at 3 p.m. It's been seven months since the release, so it appears that the demand has died down. The Cookie Shot is served straight out of a warming drawer, which is awesome in theory but sort of awful in execution. The butter from the cookie separated and oozed out to the exterior, making the flavor and eating experience really greasy. The cold, sweet, vanilla-laced milk is a nice contrast, and I highly recommend ordering extra, as that little splash isn't really enough for the full Cookie shot. The cookie itself is chewy (not crunchy) and definitely too large to consume in one sitting. I really wanted to love this, but at the end of the day, I kind of just wanted a cookie with milk.
