It's available for a limited time through December 5, 2026, at Milk Bar bakeries and online at milkbarstore.com in a tin of six for $30. I received them courtesy of Milk Bar, though.
According to the instructions, the cookies "stay fresh" in the fridge for five days or in the freezer for about a month.
Out of the fridge, the cookie was pretty firm with a decent crust. Sure enough, it had a strong buttery aroma. Inside, it was soft, moist, and chewy. Flavor-wise, it was super buttery with a moderate sweetness and a discernible note of vanilla. In sum, it's a very buttery sugar cookie.
I also tried one warmed in the air fryer (at 320 degrees for two minutes). It turned out very lightly crisp on the surface and very soft. I had to lift it out very carefully with a spatula so that it wouldn't fold and break in half. Eating it warm enhanced the buttery richness while developing a stronger salty note and pushing the vanilla way into the background. Warm, it was similar in flavor to Walker's shortbread cookies but with a soft, gooey, and chewy texture. With the amount of butter in the cookie, there's no concern that the cookie would dry out while heating.
Between having it warm or cold/room temperature, I preferred Milk Bar's Butter Lover's Cookie out of the fridge, as the warm cookie might have actually been too much buttery goodness for me (the name is no joke). It was actually really interesting how different the cookie was when warmed versus cold.
