The menu item is made with a [fudge brownie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brookies-cream-cookie) that's infused with pieces of freeze-dried strawberry to give it a touch of tart sweetness in every bite amidst the rich chocolate base. The brownie is topped with a [strawberry cream cheese frosting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salted-caramel-cheesecake) for added creaminess that will cut through the chocolate notes and comes finished by strawberry slices and a drizzle of white icing. The Crumbl Strawberry Brownie will only be on the menu from December 29, 2025 through January 3, 2026. The treat is launching alongside a New Year's promotion that offers six packs of cookies for the price of a four-pack, but only for a limited time.
