Rogue Bakery might be the first example of "Guerilla cookies" that I'm aware of. Based in Columbus, they primarily serve the Columbus area, though they do deliver in Cleveland one day a week, and will ship their cookies by mail for an additional shipping fee.
Cookies can be ordered from their facebook page or a BigCartel storefront. The available menu has 2 basic items that change on occasion: The Experimental Sampler Dozen, containing set flavors like "I'm Not A Snickerdoodle", Oatmeal Chocolate Chunk, and "The Shapeshifter", a sugar cookie made and decorated to the Bakery's whim. (One week it might be cut and decorated to look like a pop tart. The next week? Star Wars characters!) The remainder of the bag will be marked as experimental cookies that the bakery is tested out, and you are encouraged to provide feedback to their Twitter or Facebook pages. (My current sampler came with three experimentals - a rich dark chocolate cookie, an ancho chile peanut butter with a delightful mix of sweet and hot, and a banana cookie with candied ginger). The cookies are big, tasty, and filling - a single package of two cookies is usually enough for a delicious dessert. You can eat them as is out of the bag, or the Bakery will attach a small note to your bag on the best way to reheat the cookie in your microwave for the "just out of the oven" experience.
Their other option is called "Cookies with Benefits" - this is a split dozen, 1/2 "Chocolate Liberator", 1/2 Ancho Peanut Butter. The twist is that the entire dozen is gluten-free, vegan versions of the normal recipe! Even better, the "Benefits" dozen comes back with a money-back guarantee. If you don't like them, notify the bakers for a full refund.
Once you order, if you go for the delivery option, you'll be given a delivery window based on when your order came in. If you can't be home during the delivery window, they're very good about working with you to either reschedule or to leave your cookies in a safe place for you to retrieve when you return home.
Also, if you choose to follow the Bakery's facebook or twitter accounts, keep an eye out for local specials! The bakery is fond of performing "surprise" offers during the week where they'll offer limited samples of new flavors or "5 for $5" packs that will be announced in limited quantities and delivered that day to hungry cookie fans. read more
