The cookie is crafted with a [buttery, flaky croissant profile](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dubai-chocolate-crookie) that's paired with a [crunchy pretzel layer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sea-salt-pretzel-snackers) on the interior, which has been stuffed with a rich chocolate chip cookie dough before being baked to perfection. The treat is then topped with a sprinkle of sea salt to further play on the sweet and salty flavor profile. The Chip City Cookies Chocolate Chip Cretzel will only be on offer at the brand's participating locations for two days including April 26 and 27, 2025 for $7 each plus tax.
