What Are Crumble Cookies?
Crumbl is the fastest-growing franchised cookie company in the US. They sell deliciously buttery, soft, gooey, cake-like thick cookies that are baked in their open-concept kitchen stores, and packed in a cute pink box. Their menu rotates weekly and has featured a variety of flavors (more than 200 so far). I don’t think I can pick just one favorite cookie but some of the flavors that come to mind are churro cookies, banana cream pie, chocolate oreo crumbl cookies, key lime pie, fruity pebbles, apple pie, twix and cosmic brownie.

Yes! These are large, thick and gooey cookies that need some time to set before you can remove them from the baking sheet pan.

I highly recommend that you use a combination of all purpose flour and cake flour to make this recipe.

If you don’t have cake flour, check my quick substitution on the chef’s notes of the recipe card below.
