The Yummy Cookie  //  Roseville’s Highland Reserve Marketplace just got a little bit sweeter with its new tenant, The Yummy Cookie. As soon as I walked in, it felt as if I was entering Grandma’s kitchen, as the smell of freshly baked cookies wafted to my nose. My daughter and I were welcomed with an extremely knowledgeable staff and rustic ambiance—thanks in part to tables with wildflower-filled mason jars. I couldn’t pass up trying their signature cookie, ironically called “The Yummy Cookie,” and made with chocolate chip and oatmeal batter alongside dark chocolate chips. Calling it a cookie really doesn’t do it justice though—it was more like a small piece of cake: soft on the inside with the right amount of crunch on the outside. Trust me when I say it was a delightful dance of flavors on my palate. Of course, I needed something to wash it down with, so I went with the Blended Caramel Mocha. Sweet and creamy with a perfect punch of caffeine, it was a frozen delight that I’d most definitely indulge in again. Traditional hot and iced coffee drinks are also available, along with an array of non-cookie treats like bars, muffins (and muffin tops!), cupcakes, and monster peek-a-boos for the little ones—all made using natural, local and real ingredients without hydrogenated oils or preservatives. The Yummy Cookie, 10305 Fairway Drive, Suite 110, Roseville. 916-771-2798.
