These cookies lived up to the hype.

Florida Food Bucket List: @gideonsbakehouse ✅ - you’ll want to swipe through all these photos! On a recent road trip, we made a slight detour to Gideon’s original location in the East End Market in Orlando. How gorgeous are these cookies?! 😍 Weighing in at nearly half a pound per cookie, they lived up to the hype.

🍪 The original Chocolate Chip cookie recipe took 15 years to perfect - and it was even named “Earth’s Best Cookie.” So gooey, so sweet, so rich, so decadent.💀We also took advantage of the season and picked up “The Frankenstein,” topped with M&Ms and STUFFED (generously) with crushed Oreo “Double Stuf” cookies and chocolate pieces. 🥛And last but definitely not least, the Cookies and Cream, made with a vanilla bean cookie base and covered with some more Oreos, a sneaky favorite!

And for those of you wondering, we went on a Sunday afternoon around 2:00pm, and we waited about 10 minutes in line.
