This Great American Cookies location has great treats and an amazing, fun staff who truly go above and beyondânot just in baking, but in helping make memories!
My brother Mitch lost a bet and had to pick up a cookie dressed as a full-on fairy princessâpink tutu, feather boa, tights, ballet slippers, and, of course, those ruffled bloomers that added just the right touch of humiliation. The poor guy had to endure the longest walk of shame from his car to the store and backđ, tutu bouncing with every reluctant step. But once he got inside? The real fun began.
Every time someone said âtutu,â Mitch had to twirl and proudly declare, âI feel pretty, oh so pretty!â And let me tell you, they said it A LOT. The staff was in tears laughing, customers were pulling out their phones, and Mitch? Well, he looked like he was enjoying it a little too much.
Then came the final blowâthey handed him a special cookie decorated with an icing tutu, a perfect reminder of his suffering. But just when he thought it was over, he was informed that the staff had captured the moment for social media. So now, somewhere out there, Mitchâs ballerina debut is forever immortalized online.
Oh, and the best part? I hear the owner wasnât there to witness it and has asked Mitch to COME BACK so they donât miss out on the show. Apparently, his performance was just that good. We will make this happen if thatâs true!!
The cookies? Incredible. The entertainment? Even better. Thank you, Great American Cookies, for making sure Mitch will never...
   Read moreI absolutely love cookie cakes. It's my "cake" of choice for every birthday for the past several years. It's hard to justify a huge cookie throughout most of the year. So I look forward to being able to grab one of these from somewhere.
Since my birthday is around the holidays, it had been a long time since buying any cookie at the Great American Cookies store. Traffic just getting into the malls is crazy. But this year, I was determined to step it up from the usual HEB or Target cookie. Which I should note, are also quite good. At least Target is. And it's at least 1/3 of the price.
While the cookie is 2/3 tastier, it is as least twice as tasty as a fresh local grocery bakery. These cookies are a bit larger, softer, and have a really addictive taste to them. The frosting, chocolate chip, and core of the cookie are all super delicious.
In fact, they may be... too tasty. In less than 24 hours, my Wife and I have already finished about half of a full size cookie cake. And it had a lot of frosting. Exactly why I can't buy these things every day. But I know where I'll be making my next cookie cake purchase. It's not cheap, yet...
   Read moreThis is the second time in as many days (2), that I've purchased cookies from the Round Rock Premium Outlets Great American Cookie Factory, and I've had issues birh days!!
Day #1: I asked for a fountain Dr. Pepper with no ice and receive s warm, flat soda, then changed to a sprite...just as bad! And, no... just because I asked for no ice, doesn't mean the soda was suppose to be warm. Fountain Soda machines are supposed to have ice in the top to keep the soda lines cold and running with the carbonation. If you don't add ice daily, you get flat, warm drinks. So, no ice...I'd still get a cold drink.
Day #2: I go back the very next day... CRAVING more cookies, so I buy 8 more (4 double chocolate and 4 wht choc. macadamia nut). I come back to my hotel room, eat one of the fudge ones. Cool! Next cookie is WCMN... LONG BLONDE HAIR!!! Full disclosure...I'm a black woman with black hair! Needless to say, I've vomited.! I have lost my desire...
