Ok, so I’ve just posted this less than flattering review for MILK’s ice-cream sandwiches here and now I fear I might really upset some MILK fans out there as I continue to write that… They’re cookies aren’t all that either!
Sorry MILK. My friend Ben, from B-side Blog, and I continued our dessert fest as we dug into a bag of cookies from MILK. We were both befuddled at first. Were these cookies vegan? White-sugar free or low-fat? Surely these were not normal chocolate chip and peanut butter cookies..???
The chocolate chip cookie had a weird flavor that made me think it was fruit sweetened as the after-taste was reminiscent of white raisins. Ben also loathed the cakey nature of the peanut butter cookie, which crumbled into many pieces as you tried to break off bites. Where was the peanut butter’s fudgy contribution?
But as I have said before, MILK does nail their cream-cheese frosting, so if you’re jonesing for a sweet treat at this trendy corner bakery, not all is lost.

I am so happy to find someone who agrees with me!! I’ve had a lot of items from milk and all very very average. The milkshake and the red velvet cupcakes have to be the worst! Sorry milk, I really really want to like you cause I love your concept, but yuck.
Totally agree on their chocolate chip cookies – they’re atrocious! I actually threw the one I bought away after one bite! Never ever again.
That said, I really like their ooey gooey chocolate chocolate chip cookies. Those bad boys are worth the trek!
Try the molasses spice cookies, seriously addictive.
I have not had any of Milk’s products before, but I always see the store when I’m driving through town. I think what really turned me off to going in was the Milk guy’s attitude on Food Network’s Cupcake Wars. I just didn’t care for him and thought he was really rude to the other contestants. So now I’m glad to know I’m not missing anything!
I really like your blog – came over from B-Side!
Have a great day!
