The 21 Essential Restaurants in Boulder, Colorado

"Freshly baked late-night cookies are a guaranteed moneymaker on pretty much any college campus, but the ones at Boulder Baked are legitimately great. The local, family-owned bakery specializes in cookies, though its other desserts, like cupcakes, brownies, and ice cream sandwiches, are worth a taste too. Cookies come in every imaginable flavor: classic chocolate chip, peanut butter M&M, red velvet, and even an “everything” cookie. Boulder Baked is open until 10 p.m., and Buffs with the munchies can pick up or have the cookies delivered straight to their door." - Rebecca Treon, Josie Sexton, Ruth Tobias, Nisa Sedaghat
