Amanda's Cookie Jar & More

Amanda's Cookie Jar & More Providing homemade fresh baked goods one cookie at a time! Amanda's Cookie Jar & More is ran by a one woman crew.

My whole life was spent in the kitchen beginning with watching my mom and granny cook, bake, and can. I can think of no greater joy than to watch what my baking brings to peoples lives.

🔪🖤 Another Sweeney Todd cookie has entered the lineup…

Meet THE DEMON BARBER 😈🍪

A rich black cocoa cookie loaded with Oreo pieces and white chocolate chunks — dark, decadent, and dangerously good. 🖤🤍

Of course, I had to create something worthy of Sweeney Todd for my upcoming cookie sale at Charleston Community Theatre! 🎭🔪

Mrs. Lovett has her Raspberry Pie Cookie… 🥧🩸
Now Sweeney has The Demon Barber.

And trust me… this one is killer. 😏🔪😂

Catch Sweeney Todd: The Play at Charleston Community Theatre October 23–31, and come hungry because I'm having WAY too much fun creating this menu!

Now the important question…

👇 Are you grabbing Mrs. Lovett’s Pie or The Demon Barber first?!

ONE is such a big deal when you’re this little! 🥹🎂

I had the sweetest time making this little smash cake for a very special 1st birthday! 💙 The soft blue ombré with that gold “One” topper kept it simple, sweet, and absolutely adorable.

Happy 1st Birthday, little one! 🎉💙

😂 Sometimes you mess up a recipe…and accidentally make it BETTER.

Remember my Mrs. Lovett’s Pie Cookies? 🥧🩸 Wellllll… somebody 🙋‍♀️ completely forgot to put the crumble on top before they went into the oven.

I realized it afterward and thought, Well, crap. 🤦‍♀️😂

So I made the crumble separately, baked it up nice and crispy, added it to the finished cookies and then tasted one.

WAIT A DAMN MINUTE. 😳

I think I actually like them BETTER THIS WAY! 😂 That soft brown butter cookie with the gooey raspberry center and the extra crispy, buttery crumble on top?! 🤤❤️

So apparently today’s baking lesson is:

✨ Not every mistake needs fixed. Sometimes you just accidentally create the new recipe. ✨

Now I need to know—have you ever completely screwed something up in the kitchen only to discover it was better that way?! 😂👇

🍪 Okay, cookie people… I need to know! 🍪

What is the CRAZIEST cookie flavor or ingredient combo you’ve ever seen?! 👀

And more importantly… was it actually GOOD?! 😂

I’m talking about those combinations that make you go, “There is NO WAY that belongs in a cookie…” and then somehow you take a bite and it WORKS. 🤯

Sweet + salty, spicy, savory, totally bizarre — nothing is off limits!

👇 Drop the weirdest cookie combo you’ve seen or tried in the comments!

Who knows… maybe one of your crazy suggestions will end up in my oven. 😏🍪🧪

🔪🥧 Something wickedly delicious is coming to Charleston Community Theatre!

I’ll be set up selling cookies during Sweeney Todd: The Play, October 23–31, and of course I had to create something special for the occasion!

Introducing Mrs. Lovett’s Pie 🥧🩸
A thick brown butter cookie filled with sweet raspberry preserves and topped with a buttery brown sugar crumble. And unlike Mrs. Lovett’s other pies… you can safely ask what’s in these. 😂🔪
I made a test batch and OH. MY. GOODNESS.
Can’t wait to be part of Charleston Community Theatre’s 2026–2027 season and serve up some dangerously good treats! 🎭
