CT Bites Staff Picks for Top Eats of 2023 (+ Special Guest Eaters)
Across from Taco Guy and down Isaac Street, there’s something else I’m addicted to. It’s salty, sweet to the point that it’s practically caramelized, peanut buttery, mashmallowy, and there’s no shortage of chocolate in it either. I could only be talking about the best cookie I’ve had in my life, the Fluffernutter Forever, from Rebel Daughter Cookies and my friend, Anne Grossman, who’s one of the coolest, realest souls I’ve met around here.

This Cookie Won't Crumble
Anne Grossman wasn’t the kind of rebel who vandalized property or wore strange make-up to frighten the elderly. She never threw rocks at birds or tried to trip power walkers.

She was the rebel who constantly tangled her parents into insidious knots of reason. Why are tattoos bad? What’s wrong with swearing? Why can’t I wear this?
“My older brother is a rule follower,” she recalls, “I came along and gave my parents gray hair.”
Thus she was bestowed the cognomen, “Rebel Daughter.”
