KitKat® Cookie Pie! Why didn't anyone think of this before! It's so brilliant! It's basically two layers of chocolate chip cookies sandwiching a melty, gooey chocolate-hazelnut spread in the center. And of course, the classic crunchy candy bar is mixed in too for the full candy store feeling! KitKat Cookie Pie is all the good stuff from your candy jar in a cookie... and that cookie is also a pie because restraint is for things that aren't dessert!
