Keiki cookie skillet w/ brown butter fudge
Kristian G.

Chunky is basically heaven for cookie lovers. I don't make it out to Laie often, but whenever I do, this spot is non-negotiable. It's tucked inside Pounders at the PCC Hukilau Marketplace. There's no indoor seating, but there are plenty of tables scattered around outside, which makes it a nice place to hang out. The first thing you'll notice is how massive the cookies are. They come in a variety of flavors like chocolate chip, white chocolate mac nut, and s'mores, but the real star of the show (and the reason I keep coming back) is the cookie skillet. I usually go for the keiki size, which is honestly perfect for sharing. The family size is huge! The skillet itself is incredible--warm, gooey cookie with just the right balance of sweetness and a hint of salt. It's topped with a generous scoop of ice cream and your choice of sauce drizzled over the top. My go-to is the brown butter fudge. It does take about 15 minutes to prepare, but it's absolutely worth the wait. Pro tip: order it first, then take a stroll around the marketplace while it bakes. Already looking forward to my next visit!

Located inside Pounders Restaurant

@fortunefoodfinds: "You BAKE me happy! Cookie flavs: Double Chocolate Coconut, Smore's, Coco Caramel, + a Chunky "OG" made into a sundae n' topped with PB Caramel Sauce from CHUNKY & CO. located inside Pounders Restaurant in Laie. When in the need for something sweet, this is a great treat!" SERVICE: friendly INTERIOR: inside Pounders Restaurant EXTERIOR: located in the middle of The Polynesian Cultural Center WAIT TIME: 5-10 mins PARKING: plenty in lot OVERALL COMMENTS: wanted to try out all the cookies bc they looked so good! Was satisfied with our choices. For the sundae they heat up the chunky OG cookie n' I was pleasantly surprised how the ice cream didn't melt right away. Was excited for the pb caramel sauce that was ofc tasty. All cookies had a crisp-crunchy exterior n' were jumbo in size, which makes sense for the price. Took bites of everything then when we got home popped them in the microwave. Prefer them to be warm n' eaten with the chocolate a lil' melted, makes it even more better than at room temp. If I'm back in the area n' craving cookies, I would visit them again!

Finally got out to try it here and let's just say it was worth the hour drive and some traffic from waialua. Got a s'mores with vanilla ice cream and fudge and a chocolate chip cookie with vanilla and fudge too! Then got 2 extra cookies to take home with us! Haha! They're located at the Polynesian culture center in the pounders restaurant at the front right right when you walk in. They have their menu and the cookies are right there in their display for you to see. The employee was very friendly and we got our order very quickly. She was also helpful with any questions we had with our order. LOTS OF CLOSE PARKING. Bathrooms near by. Nice big clean bathrooms with lots of stalls. Also tons of other restaurants and stores to drop in and check out. Make a day of it for this trip especially if you're coming from further away.

All the cookie

The best cookies on the island hands down better then cookie corner with out a doubt it's just perfect I love there cookie skillet with ice cream top tier for sure and it's Dave's ice cream on top of it I always grab there cookies dough also to take home since we live so far away in ewa beach but it's worth the drive in my opinion keep it going chunky Yessuh

My wife and I had never jeard of Chunky but were pleasantly surprised to discover them. They were located inside the Pounders Restaurant at the front counter. The cookies were huge but also pricey at $6/ea. The flavors were classic but with a few different ones. My wife chose the Chocolate Chip. It was chocolate-y, soft. I was torn between the Cookies & Cream and the White Chocolate Raspberry. The cashier said her favorite was the White Chocolate Raspberry. So I went with her recommendation. Soft chewy inside with crisp edges. The white chocolate and raspberry were good.

These cookies are the real deal. Obviously homemade with cookie love. The kid loves the s'more while my fave is white chocolate with macadamia nuts. They are so big it's practically a meal. The cookie counter is located inside the Pounders restaurant. Service is friendly and fast. This is my go-to when I need a sugar rush.

I was in the area and wanted a sweet treat. These cookies are HUGE! Like bigger than the Costco food court cookie. Very unique flavors and really well baked. Highly recommend if you're close.

rasperberry, walnut and macademia
Tulisa T.

very large, chunky and filling. the outside is a bit hard but on the inside, it's soft and chewy. raspberry is my favorite. it has the perfect amount of sweetness and hint of raspberry. walnut tasted ok, not that great. macademia tasted better but nothing special either. the prices are affordable for such large cookies! service was quick and friendly. this little cookie shop is inside pounders restaurant which was spacious and large. we asked if we can eat the cookies on one of the tables but i believe the "manager" of the restaurant said there was tables outside with attitude. we asked because there were plenty of empty tables inside..

Chunky: chuncky "keiki"
Rosie A.

Chuncky "keiki" took nealy 15 min but well worth the wait. Ordered with salted caramel as a topping and oh boy ....this was a yummy treat after a long walk at the Polynesian Cultural Center. Place is small and long waits but yummy and has a friendly staff. Highly recommend!

Deliciousness!!!
Marilyn B.

I think these are the most delicious cookies I have ever eaten in 2024 I would drive an hour to go and get the chunky cookies! Will definitely be back!

We have followed Chunky on social media for a while and finally made the trek from Ewa Beach to Kahuku to try their cookies. Don't go looking for their foodtruck, they are now located in PCC inside of the Pounders Restaurant. They sell their cookies individually or in a box. They also sell them as cookie sundaes, which is what we got. We both chose to do the sundaes with the 3 smaller cookies (instead of 1 large one). We were also able to choose the cookie flavors and the topping (chocolate or peanut butter). No whipped cream on top, but it was still ONOOOO! I don't think we'll do the "hourish" drive out there just for the cookies, but we would stop there if we find ourselves on the Nor-Sai again! P.S. @Chunky, friendlier customer service would've made this a 5 star visit. ‍

Amazing cookies! Me and my fiance ordered 7 different types of cookies and it was unique and delicious! I was excited to try it and my expectation was thrown off cause it was sitting on the shelf and late the day we tried it. Was afraid it would be cold but it was nice and warm and the chocolate was gooey and delicious! So much better than Crumbl cookie

S'mores & white chocolate chip macadamia nut cookie
Chad K.

First off if you couldn't tell these cookies are quite massive. They are very flavorful and filling so choose wisely as there is honestly no wrong choice. Service was great and parking here has a lot so don't worry. Chunky is inside of pounders restaurant in case you didn't know. All in all it was a great experience and I look forward to coming back soon and trying their cookies with an ice cream scoop or three on it.

One of the best desserts I've had in all my life was here at Island Cream Co.! I am a huge banana…read morefan, and when I tasted the Banana Maui, their version of bananas foster, I thought I might fall over. It's vanilla ice cream (though I changed mine to banana ice cream so I could go totally overboard) covered in fresh bananas, brandy and banana liqueur, and two pieces of banana bread stuffed into each side of the cup. Indescribably delicious! Some places would make the banana bread an afterthought in a dessert like this, thinking that the rest of the dish would be so good that the banana bread could be just anything halfway decent. Not so here. The banana bread in this dessert was some of the best we had on the island during our entire two-week stay! I can't comment on the rest of the menu, since we didn't try anything else, but people seem to rave about other items here, too. The make-your-own shave ice at the Ultimate Shave Ice station seems to be a unique take on a Hawaii staple, and it's up to you whether you prefer an expert to be making yours rather than guessing at how to make it yourself, but if you want to be the boss, well, here you go! And it's definitely a hit with kids, as you might imagine. And their pineapple cream claims to be a much better and natural version of Dole Whip, so it's probably worth a try! Located in a modern strip mall, service here is friendly, and you may need to wait in line for a little while, depending on when you come. Not a ton of seating inside or out, but we did score a table outside and enjoyed our dessert in the beautiful Maui weather. The prices are about what you'd expect, no more and no less, and worth every penny! So do not pass up this dessert spot when you come to this part of the island. In my opinion, you won't regret stopping in!

We only stopped by once during our recent trip to Maui, but it left quite the impression!…read more We were going to order single scoops but thankfully the employee helping us let us know they offer a kids scoop that was the perfect size we were looking for. We ended up getting 3 different flavors. I got the one sugar free dairy free option that they had which I think was a raspberry sorbet and it was delicious!!! I usually dislike sorbet, but this one was not too sweet and perfectly refreshing on a hot day. It was full of raspberry seeds and felt like it actually was mostly made up of fruit. My daughter was indecisive and tried several flavors, and the employee was more than happy to offer additional samples.

Drifted back to my hotel after an evening of anti-sobriety. I felt an urge to wander out into…read moreWaikiki on a side quest for something sweet and savory. It was about 10 and not much to choose from this late in the eve. Looked on Yelp and found a five-star spot that closed at midnight. A unicorn perhaps, or just paid social media BSers hyping up basura? And it was within walking distance. Let's go find out. MOSA is like in a backstreet off of the main Kalakaua drag. It's like a little hut with some outdoor seating out front. Simple menu that offers eight different flavors that you order in a cup or a crepe. Wanted something not too messy and just portable enough to eat from while walking back, so I got the cup. Got two scoops of ube and Kona coffe sprinkled with crushed mac nuts. DELICIOUS. Loved the texture...very creamy, almost chewy. Lovely textures. Flavors were on point, too. It's on the pricier side for ice cream, though, but I think it's worth it for what you're getting. Great stuff!

I'll definitely have to come back to try that next time. // Single Scoop Cup (Kona Coffee) The single scoop comes in the cutest little flower pot with a tiny shovel spoon, which made it even more fun. The Kona coffee ice cream was incredibly smooth, rich, and creamy with a slightly stretchy texture that I really enjoyed. The roasted peanut sprinkles added a delicious crunch and subtle nutty flavor that complemented the ice cream perfectly. The service was also very friendly and quick! Overall, I really enjoyed it and would happily come back. While it didn't quite reach "must-have" status for me, it was still a delicious treat that's worth trying.

Great coffee and yummy treats! Parking is all street…read moreparking. You'll find this spot on the corner. It's a small spot with a grab and go set up with maybe 2-4 tables on the ice cream side. You can enjoyyyyyyy your special tray outside as well as there are a few spots you can station on. We got the black Kona coffee ($5.29) : good coffee and pipiping hot Coconut Pineapple muffin ($3.99) love the texture of the coconut and the flavor of the pineapple. Perfect balance of sweet. Caramel MacNut sticky Bun ($5.99) perfect sweet bite with my black coffee. I appreciate the flavor but the MacNut flavor was subtle since I think it was alittle over powered by the caramel. Still a good soft chewy bun. Wish I tried the ice cream since I've read good reviews on it but will have to make my way back since it was too early for ice cream. Service was fast and everyone was very kind even with the long lines :)

My friend said that her mom enjoyed the macadamia ice cream from Lappert's, so we made our way over…read moreafter dinner. The line was pretty long, but it moved pretty quickly. We got a single scoop to share, which was honestly more than enough. The ice cream base is vanilla, which was rich and sweet, basically a French vanilla. There were several macadamia nuts mixed in, which added a nice textural contrast. Overall, it was a bit too sweet and decadent for my taste, but definitely a unique flavor that you can't just find everywhere.
