Google · Is It Cheating If I'm Having a Cookie Affair That's Lasted Decades? ? My relationship with "The Chip" has outlasted most Hollywood marriages! For over 20 years, I've been sneaking into Blue Chip Cookies & Ice Cream in Leawood, sometimes claiming the cookies were "for the office" when we all know at least two were destined for my secret car stash. This ICONIC cookie haven (celebrating 28+ years of deliciousness!) has been my go-to for everything from corporate bribes—I mean "employee appreciation"—to birthday celebrations that make recipients feel genuinely special. Their decorated cookie cakes have saved countless family gatherings when I've pretended to be domestically gifted. But here's where things get scandalous: they paired their made-from-scratch cookies with 24 flavors of hand-dipped ice cream. The peanut butter fudge cookie sandwich should require a permission slip from your doctor, it's THAT good! Their cookie and ice cream flight? Basically a religious experience disguised as dessert. Insider cookie intelligence: After 8pm, cookies go on sale to clear inventory (they bake fresh daily). But waiting until then is like expecting front-row Taylor Swift tickets to be available day-of—your favorites will be LONG gone! Jennifer and Tom Balsbaugh (the 3rd owners of this sweet institution) aren't just running a cookie shop; they're preserving a Kansas City legacy that's survived because it's simply the best. Some people have therapy, others have yoga—I have Blue Chip Cookies. And my waistline has the evidence to prove it! ? ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
