Hey Cookie Plug fam! Warming up your Cookie Plug Phatties and Lil’ Plug Poppers is a must to unlock their soft, gooey, fresh-baked magic! Our cookies – thicc, dense Phatties and bite-sized Lil’ Plug Poppers – are crafted part cookie, part cake, part brownie for that indulgent vibe, but their hefty texture means they can harden if not warmed. A quick reheat softens them right up, making them the ultimate late night snack. Whether you’re vibing with O.G. Chocolate Chip Phatties, Firecracker S’mores, keto-friendly treats, or Lil’ Poppers, here’s how to reheat cookies using our official instructions to get that bakery-fresh texture. Plus, check out a fire TikTok from our fan @jordanpravin for his epic late-night cookie hack!

Why Reheat Cookies?

Our Phatties and Plug Poppers are designed thick and dense, packed with bold flavors that shine when warm. If they’ve cooled down after delivery or sitting out, they can firm up – that’s just their chonky, indulgent nature! Reheating cookies softens the dough, melts the mix-ins, and fills your space with that irresistible cookie aroma, perfect for those late night snack cravings. It’s like stepping into a Cookie Plug store, whether you’re chilling past midnight or snacking with friends. Let’s dive into how to reheat cookies for that fresh-baked experience!

Method 1: Oven for Soft, Warm Phatties and Plug Poppers (Our Favorite!)

We love the oven for reheating cookies – it softens those dense Phatties and Lil’ Poppers and gives a slightly crispy edge with a warm, gooey center, perfect for that bakery vibe.

  1. Prep: Remove your Cookie Plug Phatties or Lil’ Poppers from the package and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Heat: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and warm for 4-5 minutes for Phatties or 2-3 minutes for Lil’ Poppers. This softens even the firmest cookies into a melty, fresh-baked treat.
  3. Enjoy: Check that the edges are golden and the center is soft. Don’t overbake – you want that perfect gooey texture. Let cool for a sec, then dig in!

    Method 2: Microwave for Quick, Soft Cookies

    Short on time? The microwave is a fast way to soften your thick Phatties and Plug Poppers for a chewy late night snack.

    1. Prep: Remove your Cookie Plug Phatties or Lil’ Poppers from the package and place on a microwave-safe plate. If refrigerated, let them sit for a minute for even heating.
    2. Microwave: Heat on high for 10-15 seconds for Phatties or 5-10 seconds for Lil’ Poppers. This quick burst softens your dense cookies and brings back that gooey center.
    3. Check: Don’t overheat – too long can make cookies tough. They should feel soft and warm. Let cool slightly, then enjoy the melty goodness!

      Storing & Defrosting for Fresh Phatties and Plug Poppers

      Want to keep your Phatties and Plug Poppers fresh for later or after delivery? Our thick, dense cookies stay fresh for up to a month with the right storage, and reheating softens them every time!

      • Keep Fresh: Store Phatties and Poppers in an airtight container at room temp for a few days. For longer storage, pop them in the fridge or freezer.

      • Freezing: Place Phatties or Poppers in an airtight container and freeze. To defrost, leave on the counter for 4 hours, or reheat cookies directly from frozen:

        • Oven: Remove from package, place in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 10 minutes for Phatties or 5-6 minutes for Lil’ Poppers to soften and warm.

        • Microwave: Remove from package and heat for 45 seconds for Phatties or 20-30 seconds for Lil’ Poppers to restore that gooey texture.

      • Pro Tip: Reheating cookies from the fridge or freezer softens their dense texture, so they’re always ready for your late night snack!
