The brainchild of lawyer and North Caldwell resident Cindy Salvo, the IncrEDIBLE Cookie Dough kiosk recently opened for business in front of the Lord & Taylor department store in Willowbrook Mall. “Cookie dough was a big hit in New York, but no one had a dedicated place in New Jersey,” she says. The gooey treat is available in 10 flavors at any given time, including seasonal varieties such as a peppermint and chocolate “Mistle- Dough” around Christmas and a green variety timed with St. Patrick’s Day. All use pasteurized eggs and heat-treated flour in accordance with FDA standards; each serving of one to three scoops in a cup or cone lasts up to two weeks in the fridge. Better yet: Bring home what you can’t finish and bake the dough into thin, crunchy cookies. One scoop costs $4; two, $7; three, $10. 1400 Willowbrook Mall, [phone], incrediblecookiedough.com • COMPILED BY CINDY SCHWEICH HANDLER > DOUGH: Rutgers University undergraduates EVAN COVELLO and CHRISTIE SCHWEIGHARDT have led nearly parallel — and equally successful — lives up to this point. The two first met in fourth grade at Packanack Elementary School, where they became good friends. After that, they attended George Washington Middle School, Wayne Valley High School, and Rutgers University together. They’ve also shown similar interests in leadership. Both served on the middle school student council together; at Wayne Valley, Covell was president of the student council, and Schweighardt was Overall Captain of the Student Dance Association White Team. Both were student athletes; Covello ran cross country and played varsity volleyball, and Schweighardt played varsity field hockey. But the wildest aligning of their stars occurred this past academic year, when Covello and Schweighardt were elected president and vice president, respectively, of the Rutgers University Student Assembly for 2017-2018. Though the two majored in different subjects, don’t assume that they won’t cross paths again. Says Schweighardt, “I am 100 percent sure that our time spent through these past several years is only the beginning of our friendship and of the work we will do together.”
