Dirty Dough

Dirty Dough, founded by Bennett Maxwell in 2018 out of an Arizona State University apartment, is a national gourmet cookie chain now operating over 80 brick-and-mortar locations with a franchise model that has sold more than 460 territories. The brand differentiates itself through cookies engineered with proprietary layers, mix-ins, and fillings baked into the dough, with trademarked flavor profiles unavailable anywhere else. Acquired by Craveworthy Brands in 2024 and produced at a Utah dough manufacturing facility, Dirty Dough is expanding into consumer packaged goods and grocery retail.
