Meeting Street Cafe in Providence, RI
The Meeting Street Cafe is located at Brown University right off Thayer Street. I noticed it on my walk through the college because of a large sign that said “Famous Homemade Cookies!” I made a mental note to come back and see what these cookies were all about. And so I did! I got a Monster Cookie (appropriate for being in Young Frankenstein), a Chocolate Chip, and a Peanut Butter. Now, I must say that these cookies were HUGE, about half a foot in diameter! Each one was bigger than my face! The Monster was my favorite! EVERYTHING was in this cookie! Oats, chocolate, walnuts, toffee…I mean I really can’t tell you all the ingredients. It was so soft and chewy with globs of chocolate barely melted within the nuts and oats. I loved every bite. It was a cookie of my dreams!
The Chocolate Chip unfortunately was not as good. It was really crunchy, if not a little stale, and almost hollow inside. When I broke a piece off, it crumbled everywhere and was hard to bite into. I will say there was plenty of chocolate which was nice, but I like a softer cookie than this.
The PB was AMAZING! Really crunchy on the outside with a soft peanut butter center! The best part were all the sugar crystals sprinkled and baked on top! I loved that they fell into the lines of the cookie and found their way into each bite! I kept coming back for more with this cookie! Under each crunchy groove, I knew that a chewy center would be waiting for me. It was delicious and would be great dunked in milk! So when in Providence, check out the Meeting Street Cafe for their Famous Homemade Cookies! xoxoBlondie
