The gooey, hulking 6-ounce chocolate chip walnut cookie for which Levain Bakery is justifiably famous is about to get some competition, of the bakery’s own making. For its new NoHo location, opening Wednesday, Levain is introducing an equally hefty double chocolate chip cookie without nuts, a knife-and-fork confection worth eating à la mode. It is the first new cookie added to the bakery’s regular lineup since it opened nearly 25 years ago. In late March, it will be sold at other branches of the bakery and online soon thereafter.
Two Chip Chocolate Chip Cookie, $4, Levain Bakery, 340 Lafayette Street (Bleecker Street), levainbakery.com.
