EPCOT has a new cookie that stacks a blondie on top of shortbread. Naturally, that deserves a spot on the holiday snack list. But if you’re collecting Cookie Stroll stamps, there’s a catch: that particular cookie isn’t on the eligible list.
The 2026 EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays runs November 27 through December 30. For a manageable starting point, put these three kitchen stops on your list instead of trying to turn the entire menu into one very ambitious lunch.
The cookie stop: CommuniCore Hall
At Experimental Prototype Cookies of Tomorrow, the new Prototype Cookie layers shortbread with a caramel blondie, peanut-butter buttercream and TWIX pieces, according to Disney’s menu announcement. A cookie with an architectural plan. Excellent.
For a Cookie Stroll stamp at this location, look for the Ginger-Molasses Cookie instead. Disney lists that one as eligible, not the Prototype Cookie. Buying something from a cookie kitchen is not automatically the same as buying a qualifying cookie.
The sandwich stop: CommuniCore Plaza
New kitchen Season’s Eatings is bringing a Holly Jolly Bánh Mì with smoked turkey, pickled vegetables, cucumber, Fresno chilis and cilantro. The mayonnaise gets cranberry and Chambord liqueur. It’s a savory detour before the snack list becomes exclusively frosting.
The pani puri stop: between World Showcase and Imagination!
The new Diwali Holiday Kitchen sits along that walkway. Its Pani Puri comes with curry-seasoned potatoes and chickpeas, plus tamarind water. Keep the official kitchen directory handy so the names on your snack list have actual destinations.
How to make the Cookie Stroll count
Disney’s Cookie Stroll instructions call for five eligible purchases and a matching Festival Passport stamp for each. They don’t require five different varieties, and you can complete the stroll during the festival rather than squeezing it into one day.
Once you have five stamps, take the passport to Holiday Sweets & Treats near Port of Entry for the festival treat featuring SNICKERS Tree. Check the eligible list before ordering, and ask for the stamp when you buy. Your dessert preferences and your stamp-collecting strategy can be two separate plans.
These are menu picks for planning, not a tasting report. Offerings, prices and hours can change. You’ll need valid EPCOT admission, and a park reservation may also be required under Disney’s entry guidance. Budget for the food purchases separately from getting into the park.
