🍪 The Green Temptation Swallowing Korea: Dubai Chewy Cookie 'Doo-Jjon-Koo' Craze

Korea's dessert trends are incredibly fast and creative. If we were to pick just one protagonist taking over SNS and cafe streets recently, it would definitely be 'Doo-Jjon-Koo', also known as **'두쫀쿠'**. We introduce this magical dessert that reinterprets the taste of the original Dubai chocolate with Korea's unique crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside texture.

1. What exactly is '두쫀쿠'?

It is a dessert filled with pistachio spread, the core ingredient of Dubai chocolate, and Kadaif, a thin Middle Eastern noodle, inside a cookie.

• Nuttiness of Pistachios: The luxurious nuttiness provided by the deep green pistachios is exquisite.
• Crispiness of Kadaif: The fried Kadaif noodles provide a texture that bursts with a "snap!" in the mouth.
• Chewy Cookie Dough: It is completed by being wrapped in a cookie dough with the '쫀득한' texture that Koreans love the most.

2. Why is it so popular? (The Magic of K-Dessert)

It's not just about imitating a trending chocolate; it's because Korean cookie shops have added their own unique recipes.

• Layers of Texture: There is the fun of feeling three textures in one bite: crispiness (Kadaif), softness (cream), and chewiness (dough).
• Visual Shock: The deep green filling that pours out when split in half stimulates the desire for proof shots with its so-called Instagrammable visual.
• The Star of Open Runs: In famous dessert shops, a spectacle occurs where people line up from the morning just to buy 'Doo-Jjon-Koo'.

3. Tips to Enjoy Dubai Chewy Cookies even more! 💡

1. Slightly Thaw After Freezing: If you eat it frozen, the crispiness of the Kadaif is maximized.
2. With Bitter Americano: We recommend pairing it with coffee, which cleanly balances the heavy sweetness of the pistachio.
3. Try Splitting it in Half: Before eating, be sure to split it in half and admire that marvelous cross-section first!
