What Are Momofuku Milk Bar Compost Cookies
Compost cookies are a signature baked good from Momofuku Milk Bar, created by pastry chef Christina Tosi. They are a crumbly, crunchy chocolate chip–style cookie that intentionally incorporates imperfect or leftover ingredients, such as cornflakes, potato chips, and pretzels, mixed into a buttery dough.
Key Ingredients and Flavor Profile
The dough typically combines butter, brown sugar, vanilla, eggs, flour, and chocolate chips with mix-ins like crushed cornflakes, potato chips, and pretzel pieces. The result is a cookie with a sandy, crumbled texture and a sweet-salty profile, designed to use ingredients that might otherwise go to waste.
Where to Buy Compost Cookies
Momofuku Milk Bar sells compost cookies in select retail locations and through its online shop. You can also find them at major grocery and specialty food retailers across the United States. For current availability, check the Momofuku Milk Bar website or authorized delivery platforms.
