Michael's Cookie Jar

At Michael's Cookie Jar, we bake happiness daily, one cookie at a time. From our shop in Houston's Weslayan Plaza, we have grown into a neighborhood favorite for gourmet cookies that cover the full range, from warm, soft-baked chocolate chip to delicate hand-decorated shortbread. Our Oven Fresh Cookies are exactly what they sound like, baked throughout the day so there is always something warm and ready when you walk in. Cookies are all we do, and we love the variety. Our regulars come back for signatures like The HTX Cookie, the snickerdoodle, and our loaded peanut butter cookie packed with peanuts, Reese's Pieces, and caramel popcorn. We bake to the season too, with fresh flavors and themes that rotate through the year, so the case always has something new to discover. Beyond the everyday case, we are proud of our custom and decorated work. Our decorators hand-ice shortbread into wedding cakes, bridal dresses, baby onesies, birthday cakes, and cupcakes, and we love a Texas theme, from spring bluebonnets to Houston Texans and Rodeo cookies. We create custom decorated cookies, custom logo cookies for businesses and events, and custom cookie cakes that make a birthday or celebration feel special. Many of our decorated designs can be ordered straight from our gallery, usually with about two weeks of lead time so we can get every detail right. Everything is baked with love, and that is not just a saying. Walk through our door and you are met with the smell of cookies in the oven and a team that genuinely wants to help you find the perfect treat, whether it is a single cookie for the road, a dozen for the office, or a showpiece cookie cake for a big day. We offer takeout and delivery, plus online ordering, so it is easy to get your favorites however you like. You will find us Monday through Saturday at our Weslayan Plaza bakery, with a second location serving downtown Houston. Come see why so many Houstonians keep their cookie jar full with us. However you take your cookies, warm and simple or decorated and dressed up, we would love to bake them for you.
