What is a Crookie?
The cookie croissant also known as a “Crookie” or “Le Crookie” is a croissant cookie hybrid. Both the croissant and the chocolate chip cookie are two delicious classic baked treats. When combined they create an unexpectedly delicious, crispy, buttery, chocolatey dream dessert to say the least. This new trendy treat has swept social media & made its way into many homes & bakeries. We gave this recipe a try & were pleasantly surprised by how delicious this combination turned out!
