Every cookie has a story—but this one carries a heart.
Joey, our sweet Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, may have looked like royalty, but his life didn’t begin that way. He spent years confined to a cage far too small, misunderstood because he was deaf. When we rescued him, we gave him the life he deserved—room to run, a cozy couch to rest on, and endless love. We even taught him sign language, and by a twist of fate, discovered he was the half-brother of our other Cavalier, Lady.
But more than anything, Joey lived for fetch. His little orange and green ball never left his side, and he would play for hours, full of pure joy—we often had to make him take breaks. Though we only had him for a few short years, he showed us what it meant to truly live, love, and be free.
Though Joey left us 14 years ago, the love he gave and the joy he found in the simplest moments still live on. And that’s exactly what inspired this cookie.
Made from Grandma Sally’s cherished snickerdoodle recipe, this loaded version is soft, thick, and irresistibly buttery, with a delicate crisp on the outside and a tender, melt-in-your-mouth center. Each cookie is rolled in a generous coating of cinnamon sugar, creating that signature crackly finish, while rich cinnamon chips melt throughout, adding warm bursts of spice in every bite. The swirls of cinnamon, the sugary coating, and the perfectly balanced sweetness make this cookie cozy, comforting, and completely unforgettable.
Just like Joey, this cookie is full of heart. And trust us… you’ll definitely want to fetch a few more. 🧡
