Need another reason to head to Subway? The new Dark Chocolate Cherry Cookie is the perfect excuse to go and eat fresh this week.

Subway is ready to celebrate National Cookie Day. While cookies and the holiday season are a tasty combination, the sandwich restaurant chain is enticing everyone to finish a meal with a sweet treat. The new cookie coming to the menu might even become a new holiday favorite.

Announced today, the new Dark Chocolate Cherry Cookie is a delightful combination of sweet and tart. The dark chocolate cookie dough is complemented with red cherries and semi-sweet chocolate chips. With a touch of vanilla, the cookie is a wonderful combination of sweet, rich and tart.

Added to that flavor combination, the cookie is topped with a touch of red cherry sanding sugar. While you might not have a glass of milk for dunking this cookie, it could be the sweet treat to complement that tasty cheesy garlic bread sub.

While many people enjoy the traditional chocolate chip cookie, this new flavor offers a slightly more elevated flavor. The touch of tart is perfect for the winter season. Instead of finishing too sweet, it leaves you satisfied without feeling overly indulgent.

Since the holiday season often involves a few cookies, Subway is bringing back its Gift-a-Cookie program. With holiday cookies often bringing holiday smiles, this program allows guests to gift a cookie this year. It can be the easier way to send holiday cookies across the miles.
