Crumbl Cookies has been all the rage since it opened in 2017. Its cookies are thick, sweet and melt-in-your-mouth delicious.
Since these cookies are so popular, they sell out quickly and have prices that are a bit much for a college student. There is another option for you: Make your own cookies.
You can find most of the ingredients around your house. If you need to shop for any of these items, most are at a low price. Here are two recipes for you to make crumbl cookies at home.
Crumbl Snickerdoodle Cupcake Cookie
Recipe here.
Crumbl’s snickerdoodle cookie is the perfect combination, sweet with a hint of spice. The cookie is thin on the outside but thick and doughy toward the middle. The flavor is sweet, but not too much, with a strong cinnamon flavor.
There’s also a hefty scoop of icing on top, which tastes exactly like a cheesecake icing. Crumbl’s snickerdoodle cookie is topped with a sprinkle of cinnamon.
Most copycat recipes are OK, but never taste quite like the original. However, this recipe from The Palatable Life taste exactly like Crumbl’s snickerdoodle cookie.
The cinnamon flavor of the copycat recipe isn’t as powerful as the original, but other than that, the consistency, icing and cookie are almost perfect matches.
If you’re craving a snickerdoodle cookie but want to make at home, this recipe is for you.

Crumbl Classic Pink Sugar Cookie
Recipe here.
The pink sugar cookie is a staple at Crumbl Cookies. While it comes in different variations, this sugar cookie is always on the menu.
This cookie, similar in consistency to the snickerdoodle, has a sweet almond flavor. The icing is a simple buttercream with pink food coloring. This cookie makes you feel like you’re biting into a piece of wedding cake.
The copycat recipe wasn’t everything I hoped it would be. The original cookie was sweet and simple, something I could eat every day without complaint.
However, the copycat recipe had an overwhelming almond flavor in the cookie and icing. Emily Fabolous’ recipe, while good, was too rich and harsh in flavor. Buy the original cookie or finding another copycat recipe would be a better idea.
