T-Rex Cookie Kitchen

This last visit was part of a women in tech/business/leadership event. Tina gave us a tour and told us about her entrepreneurial journey. She is funny, authentic, and full of valuable information. She has many great successes and is working to exponentially grow her business. I want to do anything I can to help because she's so awesome. After the tour, I bought a couple of cookies for the road. Peanut butter and chocolate chocolate chip were my two choices. The cookies were ginormous, tasty, and nice and chewy. They tasted great with my coffee in the morning. I love all the t-Rex things she has throughout the store. So fun!

My family loves these cookies. They are very fresh and while they are a sweet treat they aren't over the top sweet. They offer very unique and seasonal flavors. The size makes them fun to share groups because everyone taste each other's cookies. I also put them in the freezer right away to lock in the freshness for a rainy day.

We randomly came across this place on a drive and had to stop by. We are huge cookie fanatic and enjoy trying new places. We got the monster cookie and a salted caramel chocolate cookie type cookie. Both of them were good but kind of hardened on the edges, maybe because it was the end of the day. I would love to try a cookie at the beginning of their store opening hours to give it a better assessment.

Yummmmyyy. T-Rex cookies are so delicious. Initially, what made me a fan is their frozen dough that I found at Hy-Vee during the Covid shutdown times. My family fell in love and the cookie dough became a freezer staple. Since then, I've finally made it to the Eagan store, a few times! They are so creative with their flavors, there's always something intriguing. Over the summer, the team member recommended the sweet corn flavor, I was hesitant, but she was so persuasive, I had to get it. There were no regrets at all! Actually, yes there is, I wish I got more than one! My personal favorite is the caramel Oreo with the sea salt caramel chocolate chip as a close second. When I make it in, I typically buy one for each person in my family. They're so big they end up being dessert for 3-4 nights! I even had the opportunity to do a larger order for work. T-Rex was so easy to work with. We were able to print customized labels with the company logo on the cookie bag. It was so cute and delicious!

T-Rex Cookie is one of my favorite places for cookies in Minnesota. I was sad to see them leave their St. Paul location since it was close to where I would have work meetings on occasion but their new Eagan store is close to another place I work from time to time so I can still get my cookie fix. Honestly, I would drive across the metro though for these cookies, they are that good. The cookies find the perfect balance of being soft and chewy while providing a bit of a crunch on the ends. They also stay incredibly soft and chewy after purchase (although it doesn't take long for me to devour a whole cookie). My temptation is to buy a 5-pounder (yes, that is a thing here) since that would give me the best ratio of doughy soft middle cookie but then I run the risk of eating five pounds of cookie in one sitting. They have lots of flavors to choose from including classics like chocolate chip, peanut butter, sugar, monster, etc. on a rotating basis. They also will have feature flavors that you should buy and throw in your freezer for future munching since they are limited creations. My favorite cookie they offer every day is the sea salt chocolate chip and caramel. I dare you to try not to eat the whole cookie in one sitting. That is the dangerous part of T-Rex Cookies, eating one cookie is like eating a bunch of regular sized cookies (never would do unless it is Sweet Martha's) but I justify it because it is only one cookie, right? =)

Very cute store. I went in for the regular 1/2 pound cookies. I was not expecting how huge they were. I mean a half pound is a lot, but until you see it you really don't get it. They have a regular selection and then they have special cookies that rotate. I got a sugar, a snickerdoodle, chocolate chip and a caramel and Oreo cookies. The snickerdoodle was my least favorite not because they do anything wrong. I just thought I liked them more than I do. I love sugar cookies though and theirs is great. The real standout was the caramel and Oreo cookie. Yum! It's like a chocolate chip cookie with bits of caramel and Oreos instead of chocolate chips.

How doesn't love cookies, especially when they are almost the size of your face? Tina and her team make the most delicious, unique cookies with ingredients you would never think to mix into cookie dough. From starting at the Nicollet Mall farmers market to the larger Minneapolis farmers market on the weekend, heck I even remember the original location on University Ave. near 280 but now she has a permanent brick-and-mortar home in Eagan.I would like to believe T-Rex made its mark with the Sea Salt Caramel Chocolate Chip cookie, but I'm a sucker for a good Snickerdoodle. To give you an idea how unique her cookies are, here are some I've tried: Caramel Oreo, S'more (yum), Monster, Oreo Red Velvet, Birthday Cake, heck she's even mixed in veggies into cookies and they still turn out terrific. My sister loves buying the 5 lb. cookies for work - now that's a treat everyone can enjoy. I also recommend following T-Rex on social media, especially Instagram so you can see when they are trying something new. Aside from visiting Eagan, T-Rex shows up at Farmers Markets, does pop-ups downtown, and also has partnerships inside some businesses and sporting events, so keep your eye out for this tasty, sweet treat!

Let me get one thing straight: these are not your average oversized cookies. They are the best oversized cookies you will ever have!My adventures of trying T Rex cookies started pre-COVID times, back when my husband would commute downtown. Once he surprised me with a giant chocolate chip cookie and I couldn't believe my eyes. It was bigger than my head, no joke. Yes, the name T-Rex Cookie is perfectly appropriate.Since then, I've tried a variety of their cookies - Monster, Oreo, and Snickerdoodle to name a few. Each one was amazingly moist in the middle but perfect on the outer edges. Every bite just melts in your mouth. My favorite, though, is definitely the Oreo. Because whoever thought of adding Oreo cookies inside of a giant cookie was a genius! Recently we got 4 curbside cookies to go. It was a bit of a drive for me but it was so worth it. I had just parked by car and I got my phone out to let them know that I was here but I didn't even get to the dial pad before someone was at my door waiting to assist me. I was impressed at the quick curbside service even though they didn't even know what my car looked like! Thanks for the amazing cookies. They'll be my favorite for as long as I live.

I love this place and so worth the drive down to Eagan. I love the combination of traditional flavors they have. I know I can get my favorites like sugar cookie and chocolate chip, but also be wowed with flavors like Ube and even dill pickles. I love me a giant soft center and that what you'll get with a Trex cookie. Follow them on Instagram and you'll get the treat of watching them dump a whole pie or cake into their cookie batter so you know your getting the real deal. T. rex cookies make great gifts and I often buy a bunch to put in the freezer for later. I love this place and wish I lived closer.

I ordered from Goldbelly. The positive reviews of these cookies are incomprehensible to me. They are sugar candy at best. Not chewy, not moist. The flavor is completely dominated by the sugar.
