My DW loves Wookiee Cookies which can be found at DHS in WDW. Does DL sell a Wookiee Cookie?

If not, can I get some DisBoarder suggestions for a good cookie at DL or DCA? And, yes, I am familiar with Jack Jack's Cookie Nums Nums.
 

I think the best specialty cookies are made at the GCH and sold at the little seasonal cart in the lobby. Yes, more spendy but they are a cut above what's in the park. They usually have a couple of whoopie pies. The carrot cake they did for Easter this year was out of this world!
 
There aren't many great cookies at the parks, but the three best are :

1. Ghirardelli Chocolate Chip cookie

2. Raspberry Mickey Macaron at Jolly Holiday (or any specialty macaron elsewhere, like the Alien Macaroooon at Pizza Planet, which is delightful )

3. Jack Jack Cookie Num Num. Improved by adding ice cream from Ghirardelli or some soft serve from the Cozy Cone.

Runner up:
Pineapple Dole Whip Mickey sugar cookie at the various candy shops/confectionery locations. This was a surprise, taste wise, although a bit dry and crumbly.
 
It's barely a cookie, but the Matterhorn Macaroons from Jolly Holiday are a great, classic choice, if you like coconut anyway. I don't think there is anything exactly like a Wookiee Cookie at DLR.

I love the Matterhorn Macaron. Just had one last week. However, I consider it more of a candy than a cookie. It is INTENSELY sweet, as in so sweet I cannot even eat a whole one in one sitting. I have to break off small bits and eat it slowly throughout the day, or just eat half and hand off the rest to someone else. It IS probably the cheapest snack in the park at only $2.99, though, so it gets lots of points for that! Not much you can share for $1.50 per person at Disneyland Resort.

Well, yeah, it's basically what a macaroon cookie is made out of, but in a gigantic lump! They are great to eat on for a while and they keep pretty well too!
 
I tried that but unfortunately was underwhelmed. I also was very disappointed by the sipping chocolate at Ghirardelli and usually I’m all over that kind of thing. Fwiw I liked the mango churro better among festival dessert offerings.

The best Festival dessert by FAR is the Blueberry Buttermilk Pie. OMG, SO GOOD.

I also was underwhelmed by the Snickers Macaron. It just tasted sweet to me, and I didn't get any caramel, or really any peanut or strong chocolate flavor.

I'm not as much of a fan of the macaron but yes to the other two! I don't think I've ever had the pinapple dole whip mickey sugar cookie.
 
My favorite traditional cookie is the Mickey face shortbread cookie covered in chocolate. The cookie has a slight citrus flavor and the combo with the dark chocolate is soooo good.

My favorite less-traditional cookie is the Jolly Holiday raspberry macaron. I don’t like fresh raspberries all that much but this is one of the best desserts I’ve ever had.
