Here Is Where To Buy Viral Dubai Chewy Cookies In Manila

If you thought the Dubai chocolate craze would end with the new year, think again. While some people are tired of seeing pistachio and kataifi everywhere, the trend has simply changed its shape. Instead of thick chocolate bars, everyone in Metro Manila is now hunting for Dubai chewy cookies.

This dessert is not your typical baked biscuit. It is actually a no-bake treat that started trending in South Korea, popularized by K-pop stars like Jang Won-young of IVE. It feels more like a mix between a mochi and a chocolate marshmallow pie. The outside is a stretchy, cocoa-dusted marshmallow shell, while the inside is packed with crunchy kataifi and pistachio cream.

Because these cookies are mostly made of marshmallow and cream, they are incredibly sticky. Local shops usually recommend keeping them in the fridge so they do not turn into a mess before you can take a bite.
