When I read that these cookies were freshly baked, I was reminded of nights in college when my friends and I would order Insomnia Cookies-a late night cookie bakery-and the cookies would come in the box still warm. They just didn’t sing any eardrum-shattering high notes. They’re definitely as big as they appear in the photos online, but there's no literature that comes with the cookies to help you identify the flavors, just a “Mariah’s Cookies” logo. The cookies came neatly packaged in two boxes containing six cookies each. Mariah’s Cookies is partnered with a variety of third-party food delivery apps, including GrubHub, Seamless, and Postmates. The 6-pack is the smallest quantity you can order, starting at $11.99 before tax, delivery charge, and optional tip for your driver. These are definitely more expensive than your average grocery store cookies, but on par with the costs at other gourmet bakeries and cookie companies like Milk Bar (another treat delivery service we've tested).

I instructed the driver to leave the cookies in my apartment lobby, and I watched on the website's live tracker as my order was marked as “Delivered.” When I went downstairs to pick them up, however, there were no cookies to be found. Unfortunately, my first go-around at ordering the cookies was unsuccessful. However, when I checked my phone I noticed I received a text from Postmates regarding the status of my order, but I couldn’t pull the order up on the Postmates app. Immediately after my order was placed, I was able to watch the delivery process on a live tracker on the website. The Try Them All Box only includes five flavors (Chocolate Chunk, Triple Chocolate Chunk, Heath Bar, Lemon Cooler, and Spiced Oatmeal Raisin), while the 12 Cookie Variety Box is the option that includes all flavors. In trying to choose between the Try Them All Box and the 12 Cookie Variety Box, I found the verbiage very confusing. I ordered through the website to get the full Mariah's Cookies experience and it was slightly confusing, to say the least.Īfter entering my address and selecting a Mariah's Cookies "near me" (remember, these are ghost kitchens!), it was time to select my sweets.

Ghost kitchens are essentially restaurants without the dining room, where online-only food brands without brick and mortar spaces are able to produce their goods. And while the website listed the location as “Mariah’s Cookies - Washington DC,” the address actually belongs to the family-style Italian restaurant Buca di Beppo, which curiously also houses Food Network star Guy Fieri’s ghost kitchen, not affiliated with Virtual Dining Concepts. When I entered my Virginia zip code, the closest location offering the cookies was five miles away. Mariah’s Cookies are currently available to order for delivery at locations in 39 states plus Washington, D.C. Red Velvet, Chocolate Chunk, Triple Chocolate Chunk, Heath Bar, Lemon Cooler, and Spiced Oatmeal Raisin are the mainstays, while White Chocolate Cranberry, Pumpkin, and Gingerbread are the more festive offerings (still available year-round).
