Alpine Atrium (BC) - Sugar Cookie (w/ M&Ms)

This sugar cookie is incredible, and I'm incredibly picky about cookies (I have never tasted a satisfactory chocolate chip cookie). Especially if you are a short-bread lover who is on a diet and therefore reverts to its cousin, the regular cookie, rather than working out and then consuming the real thing later. It looks so freakin' unassuming, like the typical over-sized cookie that's always too big to finish (and may be of questionable age), and yet the stores do not seem to recognize that perhaps it would attract more consumers if their cookies were actually smaller and cheaper, because who eats a face-sized cookie for a meal (which inevitably happens with cookie-lovers or those with poor impulse control) without feeling guilty afterwards and therefore masochistically decides to continue buying it the future?

On whim, I bought this cookie around midnight last night (or this morning? or this night? or a few hours before the break of dawn? w/e). Me and my roommate tried it and the buds of our tasters experienced a buttery, delightful surprise of the most supreme degree. The M&Ms were irrelevant, merely sprinkles of unnecessary calories and fake chocolate-y taste. The texture could have been better (the cookie is a little hard, so I recommend not using your front teeth to bite into it).

The cookie's at the BC Alpine every time I've been there. If you have poor impulse control, bring a friend to carry some of the calories too. But everything else equal (meaning your metabolism is equivalent to my roommate's and you will love this cookie as much as we did), eating the whole damn thing at midnight not only will not make you fat, but it will temporarily make you a very happy person as well.
