Cookies & Dreams Keeps the Sweets Coming

Cookies & Dreams creates decadent sweets such as the Double Trouble (shown in the center)—half chocolate chip, half triple chocolate and stuffed with a full Oreo and creamy peanut butter. Other flavors include pumpkin spice and caramel pretzel. The business is based in the Quad Cities and recently expanded to Ankeny’s Prairie Trail. Photo courtesy of Cookies & Dreams.

With flavors like Snickerdoodle Cheesecake and OG Chocolate Chip, Cookies & Dreams’ creations live up to their sweet business name.

Based in the Quad Cities, the business founded by avid baker Stephanie Sellers launched in 2020 and quickly took off. Recently expanding to Ankeny’s Prairie Trail, it also has locations in Coralville and Bettendorf. Counters at all the stores brim with 12 innovative flavors baked daily.

The business has showcased its creations at Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards, New York Fashion Week and the PGA’s John Deere Classic Tournament.
