The word on Great American Cookies
Here's the word going around
I haven't ordered a cookie cake here yet, so this is the diners' read, not mine.

By most accounts this is a mall-based chain slinging cookies, brownies, and cookie cakes, and reviewers don't romanticize chains. But the cookie cakes do the job: one grabbed for a graduation got eaten happily, with an online order ready early and no drama, which counts on a busy day. What lifts it is the people. Reviewers credit a Brandi who went out of her way for a painfully last-minute order, and a Joanna who took a nine-year-old's hand-drawn cake design seriously and actually listened. For a mall counter, people say, that kind of warmth is more than they expected.
A mall counter where the staff treat a kid's crayon design like a commission? That earns a visit.
The Order
Reviewers point to a cookie cake for a birthday or graduation, ordered online and ready ahead.
⚠ Gotcha
It lives in the mall, by several accounts, so plan for mall parking and hours.
That's the word on this one.
