The viral Dubai Chocolate Pizookie is here! BJ’s also brings back the Monkey Bread Pizookie for the holidays. Get the scoop on these sweet, limited-time treats.

Dubai Chocolate Pizookie

Get ready, theme park foodies. Just a few days after announcing new Deep Dish Pizza, BJ’s Restaurants revealed a new dessert for the season. This holiday season, BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse has doubled down on dessert magic, announcing the simultaneous debut of two highly anticipated seasonal Pizookies. Headlining this spectacular sweet treat event is the brand-new, social media sensation-inspired Dubai Chocolate Pizookie, launching alongside the legendary, highly requested return of the Monkey Bread Pizookie.

According to Heidi Rogers, senior vice president of Marketing at BJ’s Restaurants, Inc., the decision came down to two powerful forces: a public petition and a viral trend. “Guests have been begging us to bring the Monkey Bread Pizookie back ever since we removed it from the menu two years ago,” Rogers said. “However, when we saw the virality of Dubai Chocolate… we knew we had a tough decision to make. So, in honor of the most wonderful time of the year, we had no choice but to give guests what they want, and… launch two seasonal Pizookies.”

The Headlining Dessert Attractions: The Viral Dubai Chocolate Pizookie

1. The All-New Dubai Chocolate Pizookie

With more than 20 billion views on TikTok, the Dubai Chocolate trend has finally arrived in Pizookie form! The Dubai Chocolate Pizookie promises to be an internet-breaking dessert. It features Ghirardelli chocolate chunks, rich vanilla bean ice cream, a crackable chocolate shell, silky pistachio sauce, and the golden, toasted crunch of kataifi. This unique sweet treat is a must-try for anyone looking to experience the world’s most viral dessert trend.

2. The Highly Requested Monkey Bread Pizookie (Returning for 2025!)

Back for the first time since 2023, the Monkey Bread Pizookie is the cozy, homestyle hero fans literally started a petition to bring back. This classic features soft, cinnamon pull-apart monkey bread, baked to gooey perfection and topped with two scoops of rich and creamy vanilla ice cream, finished with a generous drizzle of sticky-sweet caramel. It’s pure holiday comfort.
