Following the successful release of the brand's Footlong Chocolate Chip Cookie earlier this year, the new Footlong Gingerbread Cookie puts a seasonal twist on the supersized dessert option. Each Footlong Gingerbread Cookie is in fact a foot in length and features a flavorful blend of ginger spice and molasses, all topped with crunchy sugar pieces. If you're looking for a smaller cookie option that's equally as festive, Subway is also bringing back its popular [Red Velvet Cookie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/red-velvet-cookie-sandwich), which is a chewy chocolate cookie studded with cream cheese-flavored chips. Both holiday cookies are available now for a limited time.
