Pie Crust Cookies And A Second Chance Mission
Apple, pecan, and berry cookies anchor an Upper West Side bakery that supports young women through mentorship.
🍎 Pie Filling In Cookie Form
Pie gets folded into cookie form at this Upper West Side counter, where pie style fillings come wrapped in a crispy pie crust cookie. The flavor lineup runs to apple, pecan, and berry, each baked to a soft, crumbly texture that recalls the top of a pie. Staff walk you through the flavors of the day, a welcome bit of guidance on a first stop.
The story behind the counter carries real weight. The bakery grew out of the recovery of its founder from addiction and homelessness, and today it supports young women through mentorship and second chance employment. That mission sits at the center of the business, right alongside the cookies.
The compact shop at 434 Amsterdam Avenue feels welcoming, and it keeps daily hours from 10 AM to 11 PM, late enough for a dessert stop after dinner on the Upper West Side. Grab an apple cookie for a classic pie fix, or pair pecan and berry to split with a friend on the walk home.
