Trying the viral Crookie

This is a rather different recipe than my usual. I know it. But I am a real foodie with a passion for cookies and croissants, so I couldn't resist. My girlfriend was scrolling through TikTok when she saw a new viral recipe. Cookie Croissants, aka croissants stuffed with chocolate chip cookie dough. We HAD to try them, period. So we went to the supermarket and got all it's needed: croissants and premade cookie dough. They were baked in the blink of an eye. Never had something that good, I had to share this recipe with you.

What is cookie croissant?

The easy cookie dough croissant from TikTok is not actually from TikTok. This recipe originated in a small bakery from Paris, called Maison Louvard. "Croissant pur beurre garnit d’une généreuse pâte à cookie mi-cuite", that is how the bakery launched its new product. For those who don't speak French, the new launch is nothing but a buttery croissant mixed with cookie dough inside and on top.

If you are lucky enough to fly to Paris, you can get the original Le Crookie for 7.10 €. Or 5.90€, in case you order it for take away. It may seem a lot, but trust me, it's worth the price. These croissant cookies are so rich and indulgent that you won't regret a single cent.

2 ingredient cookie croissant

This easy cookie croissant recipe only calls for two ingredients: croissants and cookie dough. You can get everything from the grocery store, or from a local bakery if you're looking for higher quality. Here are some more details:

• Croissants. You'll need 6 butter croissants, without fillings such as jam or cream. The filling is gonna be chocolate chip cookie dough. You can get packaged croissants from the grocery store or from a bakery, I recommend bakery style croissants because they taste better.
• Chocolate chip cookie dough. This easy Crookie recipe uses pre-made cookie dough, the one that is sold in packages. I stuffed my croissants with Sweet Loren's cookie dough, it is healthier and made with cleaner ingredients. But any other brand such as Pillsbury cookie dough works. As an alternative you can also make your own cookie dough at home.
