Chicago – November 02, 2026 -- Milk Bar is selling a limited-edition Butter Lover's Cookie, made with Plugrá Premium European Style Butter, from November 1 through December 5, 2026, in a tin of six for $28.

Butter takes the lead in Milk Bar's classic cookie

The cookie keeps Milk Bar's signature texture, soft in the middle and crisp around the edges. Plugrá butter is meant to make it golden, rich and butter-forward.

Plugrá is slow-churned and made with 82% butterfat, the European standard. Jenny Mehlman, Senior Director of Marketing at Dairy Farmers of America, says that makes it the butter most preferred by professional chefs today. Plugrá is a farmer-owned DFA brand.

Plugrá has been in Milk Bar's kitchen since opening day

Founder Christina Tosi says Plugrá was a non-negotiable ingredient in every batch of cookies, cakes and pie baked on Milk Bar's opening day. "Really great butter changes EVERYTHING," she said.

The cookie is sold in stores, online and by delivery

The tins are available while supplies last at all Milk Bar bakeries nationwide, through local on-demand delivery and online at milkbarstore.com. Milk Bar runs 10 bakery locations across New York City, Los Angeles, Washington DC, Las Vegas and Chicago.
