⁤[Crumbl](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brookies-cream-cookie) Cookies may be best known for its rotating menu of delicious cookie creations, but now the brand is expanding into new dessert territory with a new treat dubbed the Crookie.

Those who follow famous foodies online have likely seen a hybrid cookie dough-stuffed croissant floating around [TikTok](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-springs-cookie-dough-croissant) and [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/filled-croissant). Now it seems that Crumbl is getting in on the viral treat with its own take on the recipe. Crumbl's new Crookie consists of a buttery croissant that's been sliced open to make room for a generous portion of semi-sweet chocolate chip cookie dough.

If you're looking to sample the Crookie for yourself, you may have to do some digging because it's currently just a test item that's only available from a select few Crumbl Cookies locations.
