Companies tempting patrons with beer cookies

When Wackym’s Kitchen recently moved in down the street from Lakewood Brewing Company, the two independently-owned businesses decided to join up for a decadent pairing.

Known for crisp and crunchy, unique and classic cookie varieties, Wackym’s latest release is appropriately called The Temptress, since it uses Lakewood’s Temptress stout in the recipe. Notes of chocolate, molasses and vanilla deliver a malty, chocolate beer cookie made in beer and cookie heaven.

The Temptress cookies and beer can be found in gourmet grocery stores around North Texas for a limited time. — By Wim Bens
