Soft cookies are a sweet lovers' dream come true. These popular cookies, originally from the U.S., have a crunchy outer texture but are gooey on the inside. 

These cookies are now popular in Indonesia — a favorite of all ages. There are plenty of markets and online retailers that take online orders for these cookies, and they are frequently featured on the menus of several popular cafes in Indonesia.

Like any other cookies, soft cookies almost have similar ingredients such as flour, sugar, eggs, and some type of fat. Traditionally, raisins, oats, chocolate chips, nuts may be included in the dough. However, nowadays, people are getting creative and adding lots of other flavors and ingredients, including green tea, Nutella, Cadbury pieces, and ginger biscuit.

If you're a fan of cookies, you can't miss this craze. Here are the most recommended soft cookies shops in Jakarta that you can try and take home to your family.
