Available as part of the brand's rotating weekly cookie flavor menu available now through June 1, 2024, the new Banana Split Cookie is a sweet and fruity new flavor. The new cookie consists of a vanilla sugar cookie base topped with a swirl of banana and strawberry mousse. The whole thing is then drizzled with chocolate ganache, topped with a dollop of whipped cream, and finished with a sweet [maraschino cherry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cherry-cheesecake) – just like a real banana split would be. In addition to the new Banana Split Cookie, the same weekly cookie menu features the Cookie Butter Lava Cookie featuring Lotus Biscoff, Cowboy Cookie, and more.
