Desserts by Dindi: Sinfully Good Dark Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Despite the different flavored cookies that are being offered by various pastry shops or home bakers, I still believe that nothing beats the good ol’ chocolate chip cookie! When done right, this flavor definitely tastes as comforting as it sounds. Desserts by Dindi has recently launched their Dark Chocolate Chunk Cookies, and it has already won the hearts of many. No exaggerating — it’s definitely one of the best chocolate chip cookies I’ve had in my 27 years of existence; and believe me, I’ve had a lot.

THE STORY

Desserts by Dindi is owned by a former pastry cook in a fine dining restaurant, who has always loved creating desserts that’s both pretty to look at and yummy to eat. After resigning from her job, Ms. Geraldine had plans rolled out to continue building her career as a pastry chef in a bakeshop setting. However, like most people, her plans were halted by the global pandemic.

Her passion in baking has led her to test various recipes at home during the quarantine. This same passion has made her come up with the idea to finally launch her own business, selling desserts freshly prepared from her home kitchen. Ms. Geraldine has also mentioned that she’s all for using high quality and sustainably sourced ingredients on her products.

THE FOOD

Desserts by Dindi has initially launched their Dark Chocolate Chunk Cookies for her friends and family to try, but the word soon spread like wildfire as more and more orders came in. She sells them at Php 320 for half a dozen. I know, you’re thinking it’s a bit pricier than your usual chocolate chip cookie. But you have to hear me out and believe me when I say it will be worth every peso you pay.

THE VERDICT

When the cookies arrived, my jaw dropped at how nice their packaging is. They’re using an eco-friendly paper box that is so nice and classy, plus, it’s perfect for gifting, too! (Tip: But if you’re planning to store the cookies to eat on another day, I highly recommend that you transfer them to an airtight container to preserve the quality).

Each box has six pieces of palm sized Dark Chocolate Chunk Cookies, each baked using 100% premium ingredients. While I was trying to snap some photos, the aroma was so tempting I had to take a bite. And it was SO GOOD! The cookie has a thin crisp layer, and a chewy interior. I’m not sure how they did it, but the texture was by far the best! I was literally savoring each bite (while wishing I ordered more than just half a dozen).

And as if I wasn’t happy enough, here comes the melty chocolate at the middle of the cookie, perfectly bittersweet and tasty. In between each bite, I was also able to taste a faint saltiness, which balanced out the sweetness of the chocolate filling and dough. They also weren’t bluffing when they said they used 100% premium ingredients, as you can literally taste it with each bite. These cookies by Desserts by Dindi uses a local bean-to-bar chocolate, made with sustainably sourced cacao beans. No wonder it tastes so good! If you haven’t tried this yet, I swear, you have to get yourself a box or two ASAP to know what I’m talking about.
