GIVEAWAY: Momofuku Milk Bar Cookies!
Happy THURSDAY, Noshers! Are you having a happy day? If not so much, it will be happier now because I am giving away COOKIES!!!
In my last blog post, I waxed poetic on the lovely cookies from Momofuku Milk Bar that I lovingly stole won from my cousins at our annual Pirate’s Booty game. I just love cookies, y’all. Momofuku cookies, in particular. So when I was approached to partner with American Express to give away “The Perfect 10 Kookie,” created by Momofuku Milk pastry Chef Christina Tosi – I knew I had to say yes!
“The Perfect 10 Kookie” is the creation of Christina and her long-time friend, model Karlie Kloss. Made with healthy, all-natural ingredients, these Kookies are dairy-free, gluten-free and sweetened with agave. Now, fellow Noshers – you know me – I love dairy and all things sweet and fatty (true story). But I was pleasantly surprised when I tried these Kookies and they were moist, deliciously chewy, and hearty without being super-sweet (I’m guessing the fact that Christina had a hand in the recipe-creation certainly helped). I’d be lying if I said there weren’t now four cookies left in my tin where there were previously six.
Not only are these Perfect 10 Kookies good and good for you, but for NYC-ers who purchase them at Momofuku Milk Bar, 30% of proceeds go to FEED, the organization that provides school meals to children around the world. In fact, each Kookie sold provides 10 school meals to hungry children! Pretty amazing, huh?
And where does American Express come in? Well, first of all, I have a personal affinity for AmEx – they really are my card of choice (Starwood card FTW, and no they didn’t pay me to say that). But Chef Christina is part of an ambassador program at AmEx that celebrates cardmembers – using her card, she has grown Momofuku Milk Bar to five bakeries and a commissary in just 4 years! As part of its “Make My Day” program (#AmexMakeMyDay), AmEx is providing the support and “oomph” to make Chef Christina’s “Perfect 10 Kookie” initiative a reality.
But don’t just take my word for it – I am giving away FIVE “Perfect 10 Kookie” Prize Packs of 2 tins each (that’s 12 ginormo cookies, y’all) to FIVE lucky winners!

1(Just realized I didn’t answer the question, haha!)
Not sure how healthy it is, but I love a granny smith apple with peanut butter and chocolate chips. Perfect blend of flavors and textures.
2There is no such thing as a healthy indulgence!! Haha, for me, at least. When I indulge, I go all out. I guess I could say a fresh pasta salad with summer veggies? It’s an indulgence because I never spend the time to make one!
3Um these sound so good and healthy! I’d love to try them
4Glad to hear the proceeds to to a good cause too.
I love Amex because my husband works there. haha.
My current favorite healthy indulgence is kale+orange+banana+ginger smoothie! so yummy

15Definitely avocados. I could eat avo on toast for breakfast every day if they weren’t so damn expensive!
16I love edamame!
17My favorite healthy indulgence, by sheer coincidence, are Perfect 10 Kookies – but barring that obvious attempt to win your heart, I’d have to go with cherry tomatoes, the easiest and healthiest out of the package snack I know of!
18I love apples or bananas with almond butter. Best. Snack. Ever.

20Fage yogurt

25Condensed milk. Straight up. Or on toast, Hong Kong style.
26I love Greek yogurt with lots of fruit and honey, I love bananas and peanut butter, and I love rice cakes and tea!
27I love hummus!!!
28Greek yogurt with honey … and maybe some Nutella.
29I love fresh avocado with a tiny bit of agave nectar drizzled on top!
30Fruit Smoothies with a bit of spinach thrown in!
31I absolutely love a big bowl of green grapes with sliced red bell pepper! Whenever my stomach is upset, it’s my go-to cure!
32Guacamole! It is good for you!
33I absolutely love home roasted almonds!! But I don’t think the amount I eat is considered very healthy haha.
34I seriously regret not stealing that Momofuku package from you during Pirate’s Booty.
