The Tim Hortons Holiday Smile Cookie is being launched at participating locations in Canada as a socially beneficial treat that patrons can feel good about purchasing. The cookie is a festive take on the brand's signature Smile Cookie program that supports local charities and organizations, and features a white chocolate chip dough infused with red and green sprinkles. Accented by the signature hand-decorated white icing smile, the cookie is expected to be a hit amongst consumers looking to treat themselves or loved ones in a social conscious way.

The Tim Hortons Holiday Smile Cookie will see 100% of the proceeds from sales from November 13 to 19, 2023 donated directly to local charities across the country.
