Wonderful hole-in-the-wall run by a lady almost as sweet as the triple fudge brownie she pushes, and yes it's that addictively delicious. The cookie lineup is equally tasty if you're not into that brown-brown and the mere mention of whole milk as my ideal pairing had Ashleigh palming me a carton on the house. Don't pass up the chance for a taste of homemade goodness, this is a must-visit. -
We walked past (and gawked) at the window display for Ashleigh Bakes Daily on the way to dinner and had to double back for dessert. The cookies were incredible and the brownie was legitimately the best we’ve ever had. Ashleigh is such a gem, too!
Note to self: Next time, do NOT leave without the stuffed cookie of the day! -
First time ever having Ashleigh’s cookies. I had her special peach cobbler cookie, she has definitely won my heart - it’s amazing. -
Ashleigh Bakes Daily is incredible! The cookies are absolutely delicious, and you can truly taste the love and care she puts into every batch. Everything feels homemade in the best way, with thoughtful flavors and amazing quality. You can tell she genuinely bakes from the heart. -
I came the weekend of 2/28 to get cookies here while in the area. I had the Cookies n’ Crème cookie and was disappointed in the quality of the cookies. Though they smelled good and were appealing to the eye, they were hard , even after warming them up in the oven. I eventually ended up throwing them away and took it as a loss. Given the reviews my expectations were set high. I will rate 5 stars however, in the customer service area.
