Unless you are cooking to order you ought to be able to cook in batches that get time to cool down. 

 

What I’m wondering about is the economics of delivered cookies. Are you on a university campus or somewhere that the customers are concentrated?

 

I suppose we could bake them beforehand in anticipation. It's just hard to guess how many people will be ordering on a given night. We're a 15 min drive from a college campus but there are a ton of homes much closer. Uber Eats and Door Dash are popular delivery services here. We'd be listed on the app and not have to worry about hiring or coordinating drivers. The cookies would just need to be ready to go when they arrive for pickup! It's just an extra way to get cookies into people's hands as it will be our first storefront.
