America's Best Chocolate Chip Cookies
Levain Bakery; New York City
Co-owner Connie McDonald developed the Upper West Side bakery's mountainous semisweet chocolate chip–walnut cookie as a post-Ironman training treat a decade ago: “It felt so good to eat one after a 10-hour bike ride,” says McDonald, with a laugh. Just ignore the implication that you need to have a triathlete’s metabolism to eat the whole thing. The crisp shell gives way to a wonderfully thick, gooey, cakey interior. levainbakery.com
