Subway’s Footlong Cookie recipe but make it Asian by Kat Lieu

Hey fam, here's the world's first Asian-style footlong cookie, inspired by Subway's footlong cookie that they're selling on #nationalcookieday on December 4th, 2022. I decided to make my own version of a footlong cookie and boy, it's better than a butter board, at least in my honest opinion. It'll be the talk of any party, the centerpiece at any table, and a perfect holiday gift. The best part? It's highly customizable, and you can use any cookie dough that doesn't spread that much while baking. Even if it does spread, you can reshape the cookie while it's still hot! Shortbread cookie dough may work best, but I just used my Monster Miso Cookie dough recipe found in my cookbook, Modern Asian Baking at Home!

Disclosure: This cookie is actually 13 to 14 inches long. Figured it might shrink a bit after baking, so I added an extra inch of cookie dough LOL. Someone give me a Guinness World Record please! LOL.

Subway Footlong Cookie Recipe but make it Asian by Kat Lieu

Ingredients

For the cookie dough

Use your favorite cookie dough recipe or try mine here and use either matcha or hojicha (this is enough for three to four-footlong cookies, FYI)

For decorating the footlong cookie

crushed candy canes (optional)
Chocolates (optional)
melted marshmallows or frosting (optional)
anything really! have fun with the recipe!

Instructions

Decorate the cookie

Make your cookie dough. The easiest way to shape the footlong cookies is to chill the dough first, for about 15 to 30 minutes in the fridge.
Transfer about 1/4 to 1/3 of the dough to a sheet of plastic wrap. Shape the dough into a footlong, flat cookie "log" about 1/2 to 2/3 inch in height and 1 1/2 inches wide.
Bake 350F for 15-17 minutes, until the edges darken and remove from the oven.
Decorate with melted marshmallows, crushed candy canes, chocolate, or anything you want, really! I made cute snowmen faces!
