Insomnia Cookies and tbh, the chocolate hazelnut spread co-founded by Stranger Things actor Noah Schnapp, collaborated on a limited-edition cookie called the Banana Crepe [Filled](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/festive-filled-collection) Deluxe made with tbh. This indulgent cookie is made with banana-flavored deluxe dough mixed with chocolate chunks and filled with tbh hazelnut spread.

tbh has won over consumers by offering the kind of flavor experience people crave but with 50% less sugar, three times the protein and no palm oil. This collaborative cookie promises to reach Gen Z snackers since Schnapp has far-reaching influence from more than 27 million [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anon-pls) followers and 32 million [TikTok](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinnamon-bun-filled-deluxe-cookie) followers.

This springtime cookie is also being paired in packs with some of Schnapp's other favorite cookies like Chocolate Chunk, M&M's, Double Chocolate Chunk, and Peanut Butter Chip.
