For a sweet tooth, nothing is better than a warm cookie fresh out of the oven. That's why chocolate chip cookies are one of the most popular treats in the country.
Tasting Table searched bakeries around the country to compile a list of the best chocolate chip cookies available in each state, from cookies with a crunch to gooey morels overloaded with chocolate chunks.
So which bakery in Tennessee has the best chocolate chip cookies?
Moonshine Mountain Cookie Company
Located in Knoxville, this bakery serves the best of the best when it comes to chocolate chip cookies with its best-selling treat fittingly named Rocky Top, given its proximity to the University of Tennessee and the Smoky Mountains. With a name like Moonshine, you can bet there is a secret boozy ingredient in a few cookies, but Rocky Top is filled with chocolatey goodness mixed with golden rolled oats.
Moonshine Mountain Cookie Company has two locations around Knoxville. Find your nearest one at the website.
Here's what Tasting Table had to say:
"Moonshine Mountain Cookie Company has two locations in Knoxville, Tennessee. Rather than a traditional flat cookie, these sweet treats have a round gooey center that is incredibly enticing. Some of the cookies are even given a splash of moonshine for good measure, enhancing the taste and experience of eating one of the decadent treats.
Though there are several different flavors to explore, Moonshine Mountain Cookie Company's version of a chocolate chip cookie is called a 'Rocky Top,' and it is made with creamy milk chocolate, semi-sweet morsels, golden rolled oats, and a rich butter base."
