During the Victorian era, cookies were known as "sweet biscuits" and were eaten only by paupers, who were forced to substitute rich, hearty tallow with inexpensive sugar. Relish this sweet substitution with today's Groupon: for $7, you get a dozen cookies at Cookies & More (up to a $20 value). Choose between the Cookies & More locations at the Old Capitol Mall and the Sycamore Mall. Run by a husband-and-wife team, Cookies & More makes its dough from scratch and bakes its crave-worthy creations throughout the day. The lip-smacking lineup includes 10 varieties of cookies, including pecan chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, and double chocolate chip, as well as classic chocolate chip and sugar species. Order your sweet snacks plain, or have them topped with a vanilla or chocolate frosting toupee to prevent them from being ridiculed by hirsute brownies and superficial lemon bars.
