Break the mold and get a cookie fidget spinner instead
You know what they say: this fidget spinner craze isn't over yet until the cookie crumbles.
Clearly Cookies, a Dallas based custom cookie company, has created a cookie fidget spinner. It looks exactly like the original toy and it even spins.
"The idea for the fidget spinner cookie came from the guy I am dating," said Jessica Grose, the woman behind Clearly Cookies. "He has been asking me to make one for a couple weeks now. I honestly had no idea what they were until I saw him playing with one the other week. Needless to say they are mildly addicting."
Grose made a fidget spinner pattern, which she used to cut out the dough. She then used smaller circular cookies on the inside to make the cookie spin.
And spin it does, as this video from Clearly Cookies shows.
"The cookie is a sugar cookie topped with royal icing. It is my mom's recipe. I learned how to make cookies from her," Grose explained. "They can come in ANY color. They aren't just limited to the blue."
The cookies come in two different versions, spinning and non-spinning. Spinning cookies start at $6, non-spinning at $4.50, and all cookies can be completely customizable based on your fidget spinner cookie dreams. While Grose is based in Texas, her cookies can be shipped nationwide.
"I've had a lot of people reach out to me about making them. They definitely seem like they are going to be extremely popular!" Grose said.
