For too long, cookies have been relegated to a supportive capacity, holding together ice-cream sandwiches or giving their lives to make milk chunkier. Give cookies a well-deserved starring role with today's Groupon: for $14, you get two dozen cookies (a $29 value) from Doug-Out Cookies on Fresno Street.

Combining a longtime interest in baseball with a love for cooking, Doug-Out Cookies founder Doug Low pitches customers a tasty selection of cookies and other sweet treats. “The Roster” features a variety of cookie flavors for clients to delightfully mix, match, and multiply into a double-dozen package that strikes out sweet-tooth sluggers faster than cake-battered curve balls. Cookie connoisseurs can step up to a plate of Super Star Triple Chocolates, peanut butters, oatmeal raisins, or "MVP" Milk Chocolate Chips (with or without the nuts). If that’s not enough to meet the dessert needs of cookie cravers, clients can stock their basement cookie-jar collection with amaretto chips, strawberry shortcakes, jalapeno sugar cookies, or Cambria Health Bars made with whole-wheat flour, flaxseed, oatmeal, walnuts, pecans, and coconut.

Though not included in today's Groupon, feel free to fill out a cookie-heavy roster with other treats from "the bench" (fudge brownies, muffins, and Danish coffee cakes), catch an “extra inning” (day-old cookies), or sip on specialty coffees, Italian cream sodas, and fruit smoothies. Doug-Out Cookies also ships its baseball-themed fares all over the country for an extra fee.

This Groupon must be redeemed in one visit/order.
