Smart Cookie Company

I love the chocolate chip and toffee varieties here (perfectly crisp around the edges and soft in the center), but the sugar cookies have too much frosting in my opinion. Even better if you get an ice cream sandwich and the price is pretty reasonable.

Ok so i show up right at opening and they have no sugar cookies. Nice. I mean really, what cookie place has no cookies? I do love the cookies but EXTREMELY disappointed.

Really delicious cookies with a variety of flavors available. We got ice cream cookie sandwiches and highly recommend them. We also got some frosted cookies to bring home to the kids. They needed more seating available indoors though. There was one bar with 5 – 6 seats and then one table, which was already occupied. We went and ate outdoors. Love that they are open late on weekends when everything else seems to close at 9 in Utah county! We will definitely be back.

The frosted sugar cookies are bomb. Way better than swig and slurp. Other cookies are good in an ice cream sandwich – but I’d rather make my own batch than buy the choc chips just to eat.

It’s like Crack but it’s a cookie. A really soft, tender, sometimes chewy, sweet, delicious Crack, I mean cookie. Side effects include, euphoria follwed by deep depression, anxiety, and nervousness.

I literally will plan a layover on my trip so I can come get these cookies. While I’ll admit I pretty much don’t care about the non sugar cookies, the sugar cookies in all flavors are to die for amazing. Perfectly fluffy, chewy, light, but dense. It’s really the most balanced sugar cookie with the most amazing frosting on the planet. It’s sooooooo worth it!

I’m proud to say that we made it through just about the entire menu in one visit and left feeling a little sick but it was definitely worth it!
The ice cream sandwiches were really soooo delicious! Some of the best ice cream sandwiched between two fresh baked cookies for a great price. I couldn’t ask for more. We also ordered a cinnamon frosting sugar cookie which tasted even better than it looked. The frosting was a cream cheese frosting which I loved because it was just the right amount of sweet!
After we finished our ice cream sandwiches and cookies, we were feeling crazy and decided to go back and order a root beer float and a frozen hot chocolate. They were both amazing. Honestly this place is a new favorite for me!

After all the hype about this place is think I got my expectations too high. My sister and I love sugar cookies and had to try theres. It was thin and simple. Wasn’t anything special. They did though have this lemon cookie that was pretty good. The only advice I would say is to make the cookies softer. Again its my opinion, they obviously are doing something right.

Great cookies. Sugar cookies are really good. I wish they would on put on a ¹⁄₃ of the frosting. Go in the mornings when thy open for half priced day old cookies. They taste just the same and they freeze really well.

My wife and I stumbled into this cookie shop a few years back. Gourmet cookies, $ 1 apiece. Not too bad, but we were in a hurry so didn’t pay too much attention. But tonight after we mistook our movie time and had 30 minutes to spare, we sauntered in again and gave a good look at the menu and the place. Tickled to see they are still in business, along with Pier 49 Pizza, while the tenants of the other nearby shops have come and gone. That says something about their quality and value to still be around years later.
There was a young baker in the back, patiently rolling out dough and cutting out sugar cookies and popping them in the oven. And there were two others, one arranging freshly baked cookies onto the display shelving (older ones go to the back of the tray so they’ll be pulled first, while fresher ones get put up front), and one to take our order. Very friendly.
Oddly, I don’t recall the shop smelling like fresh cookies, which is – as most any child and realtor agent knows — the most wonderful smell in the world. I’ll have to go back a few more times to be sure my smeller is still working ;-)
There were a few varieties that were sold out, but we found the selection to be adequate. I’m not a big fan of any icing thicker than a human hair, so I stayed away from the stacked sugar cookies, but the milk chocolate chunk and walnut, and the dark chocolate and white chip cookies really got the taste buds going. The $ 3.50 made-​before-​your-​eyes ice cream sandwich between two cookies of your choosing was calling, but then I asked about their shakes. They make their shakes from hard ice-​cream! WA-​HOOOOO! They don’t make it out of that nasty, liquid-​based soft serve junk. They have a selection of Dreyers hard ice cream there and the shakes are made from that. You can make your own cookies and cream shake there for $ 3.50 as well. But instead of the traditional oreo in vanilla, you can add any of their fresh cookies to any of the ice cream flavors they carry. This is the only other place in Utah Country that I know of, besides the BYU Creamery, where you can get shakes made from hard ice cream. This alone has made me a fan and likely to accidentally find myself going out of my way during the commute home to sample more of the possibilities.
Only downside I’ve found so far is there are only about 8 seats in the shop. On the other hand, it doesn’t take too long to eat cookies, so if someone is occupying the seats, they’ll probably be on their way shortly. Of course, if it’s fair weather, there is plenty of outdoor seating between the movie theater and the cookie shop, which we took advantage of tonight.

Whenever were in the American Fork area, my wife makes me take her here. The atmosphere is very inviting and the cookies are amazing. Sadly, their prices have gone up a little bit recently and they pass it on to the customer but that doesn’t stop us from going. Hint: get the snicker doodles!

Why is Smart Cookie in American Fork so smart? Location location location. Right by a movie Theater. That means lots of people, families, and KIDS. As fun as it is to go get cookies, it’s even more fun with kids– All those people right there, with the word cookie– right here. beckoning. calling out to the kid in each as they walk out of the movie theater… or into the movie theater (if you’re one of those people that gets a thrill from sneaking food in). Just the idea of cookies is fun. The best part about Smart Cookie’s cookies? They’re cheap. Cheap cookies + kids = a good thing. And a whole cookie SHOP? dedicated to making cookies? where you get a full view of workers making them, and putting them in the oven, and taking them out of the oven? Oh goodie. When you walk in, you see pictures on the wall of very smart people. geniuses. once considered kooky but now considered smart cookie. None of them famous for their cooking, but famous for their smartness. Hence the location. and the name. …and the price. Smart.
Now, do not expect the best cookies in the world or you will be disappointed. How the cookie crumbles is next to frozen pre-​made cookies. The kind you bake yourself. not make yourself. But that kind of cookie is pretty good fresh out of the oven and decent at room temperature. (These cookies are not what you would imagine Anna-​the-​revolutionary-​Pascal baking at her bakeshop in Stranger Than Fiction) Although this is not my 5 star cookie shop, it IS fun, and the cookies ARE decent and the price IS pretty great. If I were with a group of people or with kids, at the theater or nearby, it would be fun to come here and get cookies.
That being said–
the double chocolate fudge is possibly the best one at room temperature, and would be gooey goodness right out of the oven. My husband was very wise (or… smart?) to choose this one.
When it comes to me and sugar cookies I’m critical– I would say I don’t like sugar cookies if I didn’t know how good they could be. So I’ll just say I don’t like MOST sugar cookies. Those who like sugar cookies in general would probably like these ones. I tried the lemon sugar cookie and I guess was disappointed because I was looking for that lemony zing that I love, and it just wasn’t there. But if I just thought of it as a pale yellow colored regular sugar cookie– not too bad. The frosting on the cookie was better than the cookie.
The chocolate chip and the chocolate toffee cookies were both good. They were a lot better with a scoop of ice cream (you can get ice cream with your cookie or get an ice cream sandwich!) I have heard great things about their peanut butter cookies so if I felt like a cookie without ice cream– I would rather try those.
My husband got milk with his cookies, and what cookie isn’t made better when dipped in milk? You can get warmed milk (a steamer) or cold milk… there is also the option of hot chocolate or frozen hot chocolate… (Oooh, so contradicting… good for a complicated mood… Or for the indecisive. Now you don’t have to choose– you can have both… or simply? for the hot chocolate lovers in the summer time. I’m guessing.) Options for the perfect combination with your particular choice of cookie. A snickerdoodle with hot chocolate would be the perfect pair on a cold day.
There are a few places to sit inside the shop– a lot of people get the cookies to go. and cookies are easy to eat on the go. and fun to take places to eat them– at those places. And even funner where there are kids. But if you don’t have kids, (with this price?) this simple cookie shop can at least bring out the kid in you.

They make a killer ice cream sandwich here. You choose your two cookies and your ice cream. Their prices are definitely a reflection of their start as a student hangout near BYU: it’s less than $ 3 for a GIGANTIC ice cream sandwich. You can’t beat their prices.
I’m a sugar cookie fan, and their sugar cookies are above-​par. They have a very good selection of cookies with some fun flavors.

Double Chocolate Fudge Cookie with Cool Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream filling; Praise Jesus!
Cheap, delicious ice cream treats sent directly from the precious clouds above for all the people in Utah to enjoy.

I went to the one in Salt Lake (or was it Sandy? I don’t get Utah’s layout), and it’s the best, and only, cookie place I’ve been too. It’d be best even if I went to the others. YOU HAVE to have a chocolate chip toffee cookie! You just do!
The only bad thing is their sugar cookies. Great frosting, crappy cookie.

I was shocked the first time I came to Smart Cookie. I expected to pay $ 5 for my ice-​cream sandwich treat, but they only charged ~$ 3! Dryer’s ice-​cream between two, fresh cookies. Yum! I love the white-​chocolate macademia cookies with strawberry ice-​cream, and cookies-​n-​cream ice-​cream with fudge-​mint cookies.
I also love just stopping by to pick up 3 cookies (chocolate fudge, peanut butter, and other) and a chocolate mile for ~$ 3. I consider it a great bargain for a fatty, pick-​me-​up.
Just a note, these butter– and sugar-​infused cookies don’t keep for more than a day or two, so don’t bother trying to stock up. They’re terrible once they sugar and fat starts to separate.

I LOVE Smart Cookie. Three cookies and a milk to go helped me get through many afternoons when I worked in Provo. Always check to see if anything has just come out of the oven — they can’t be beat, especially at Smart Cookie’s ridiculously cheap prices.

So yummy! Their ice cream sandwiches are to die for! All the cookies are soft and chewy. I would highly recommend it!
