Tips & Tricks

  • Chill the Dough: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes helps the cookies hold their shape during baking.
  • Use Quality Chocolate: For the topping, opt for high-quality semi-sweet chocolate chips for the smoothest and richest finish.
  • Don’t Overbake: The cookies will look slightly soft when you take them out of the oven—that’s perfect! They’ll firm up as they cool.
  • Customize the Size: Love the oversized Crumbl look? Make fewer, larger cookies instead of 12 standard-sized ones.

FAQs

Crumbl Cookies is known for its rotating menu of gourmet cookies, oversized portions, and a variety of innovative flavors that appeal to all taste buds. The excitement of trying new flavors each week keeps fans coming back.

Store your Buckeye Brownie Cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week. You can also freeze them for longer storage.

While natural peanut butter can work, it may make the filling softer and slightly less creamy. For the best texture, use a traditional creamy peanut butter like Jif or Skippy.
