[Crumbl](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/raspberry-doughnut-cookie) is expanding its cookie lineup yet again by adding a new Cannoli Cookie.

Available for a limited time during the week ending in July 20, 2024, the new Cannoli Cookie is a delicious take on a classic Italian pastry. For those unfamiliar, a cannoli is a Sicilian pastry that consists of a tube-shaped shell of fried pastry dough, stuffed with a creamy filling made from ricotta cheese. Crumbl's new Cannoli Cookie channels the pastry by pairing two buttery, chilled cookies surrounding a sweet cannoli-inspired filling. The whole thing is then rolled in mini semi-sweet chocolate chips and dusted with powdered sugar on top.

Alongside the new Cannoli Cookie, Crumbl is also serving up the [Cookies & Cream Cookie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brookies-cream-cookie), Raspberry Lemonade Cookie, [Blueberry Cheesecake Cookie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/white-chocolate-raspberry-cheesecake), and more.
