We at Do512 love a good cookie.
We love the big ones, the small ones, the chewy ones, the crunchy ones, and all the ones in between. In honor of these sweet treats, here are all The Best Cookies in Austin.
And no, we didn't forget about all the great bakeries in Austin churning out homestyle cookies. We just already have those listed right here!

Self-taught baker and former nurse, Ashley Cameron, perfected her grandmother's top secret cookie recipe with her son Charlie, as a way to create joy after his diagnosis with Kawasaki Disease. It was incredibly important to Ashley that her son was eating food made with only the best possible ingredients and no preservatives, as Kawasaki Disease causes inflammation in the heart's arteries. Her friends and family loved their cookies so much, they encouraged her to open a Love&Cookies brick-and-mortar, which is exactly what she did. At the shop you can find a variety of original cookies, seasonal cookies, gluten free cookies, brownies, cinnamon rolls, and possibly the best cookie cake we've ever tried. Take a look at the entire menu here.

Sometimes a cute, decorated cookie just tastes better. Don’t ask us why, but we suspect that there’s something satisfying about ingesting a treat with a certain level of creativity put into it. No place knows this better than Hayley Cakes & Cookies, where you can find everything from Taylor Swift decorated cookies to a cake shaped like a cowboy boot.

Eating a cookie from Teddy V. is truly an experience. These COLOSSAL treats weigh in at 7 ounces and have a whopping 125 chocolate chips per cookie. The ingredients, including creamy, European butter, Vital Farms pasture-raised eggs, and lots of love, are apparent when you take your first bite into one of these works of art. You can find them all over town, at places like Sa-ten Coffee, all Caffe Medici locations, and the Lakeline and Mueller Farmers Markets.
