Subway Offers the World's First Footlong Cookie, Available For One Day Only
A cookie lover's dream!
This National Cookie Day, Subway is unveiling sweet treats inspired by its sandwiches.
Some may be wondering what a sub brand is doing offering specialty confections, however, the footlong-sized goodies make sense due to the fact that Subway actually sells more freshly-baked cookies than any other restaurant company in the U.S., according to a press release.
"Bringing together two of Subway's most iconic menu items — footlong subs and Subway cookies – was the only way we could top our celebration of National Cookie Day last year when we opened the first Cookieway," Paul Fabre, Senior VP, Culinary and Innovation at Subway, stated in the official announcement. "We wanted to give Subway fans even more cookie to love, with flavors and ingredients that are just as craveable as the sandwiches they're inspired by."
The 12-inch delectables will debut in four limited-edition variations, available exclusively at Miami's Cookieway—the chain's pop-up restaurant that only serves its fan-favorite cookies—for one day only, Dec. 4 (National Cookie Day) from 1-5 PM.
The unique oversized cookie menu includes:
The Subway Cookie Club: Just like the perfect combination of proteins on Subway's #11, the Subway Cookie Club stacks cookies on cookies with a Double Chocolate cookie base and vanilla frosting, then topped with Chocolate Chip, White Chocolate Macadamia and Raspberry Cheesecake cookie chunks, rainbow sprinkles, and chocolate and raspberry sauce.
The MexiCali: Inspired by the south-of-the-border flavor of the #7, the MexiCali starts with a vanilla sugar cookie base smothered in dulce de leche, then topped with mole and corn nuts, drizzled with white chocolate sauce, and finished with ground coffee, Tajín and espresso chips.
The Monster: Like Subway's The Monster #3, this beast of a cookie has a Double Chocolate cookie base with a heaping spread of peanut butter, sprinkled with peanut butter cups, Reese's pieces, butterscotch morsels and pretzels, before it is finished with both chocolate and white chocolate sauce.
The Great Pickle: The most unique cookie on the menu showcases the signature flavor of its star ingredient, just like The Great Garlic #8 sub. This sweet and savory cookie layers both peanut butter and marshmallow crème on top of a vanilla sugar cookie base, topped with salty potato chips, savory bacon crumbles and Subway's brand new dill pickles.
If you can't make the pop-up, not to worry! Subway has also announced it will be offering its six and twelve-pack Cookie Bundles at its eatery locations across the country. In addition, there's an extra deal in it for the brand's loyalists, as guests can take $2 off a footlong sub when adding a cookie to orders placed on the Subway app or Subway.com.
Giving in to your sweet tooth has never been more enticing, as the footlong cookies support a good cause. They are only available on a first-come, first-serve basis in exchange for a donation to the Subway Cares Foundation, a "non-profit organization which provides grants to organizations around the world that align with its mission to provide youth greater access to nutritious food, tuition assistance for university and vocational education, and growth and leadership opportunities."
