There's a big decision to make next month on Election Day, but for now, it's time to choose a cookie.
"As a joke, I was like 'Let me make some Trump and Harris cookies and put them out here.' And as soon as I did, I walked out with a tray, I got the reaction from the people who was laughing, who was mad, it caused a good controversy," says Anthony Pierdipino, owner of Circo's Pastry Shop in Bushwick.
He says the cookies have been a hit. The treats are stirring up interesting conversations between customers.
The family recipe is a delicious bite of vanilla, buttercream and frosting.
Circo's says it just wants customers to enjoy the cookie.
Pierdipino says they have currently sold more Trump cookies than Harris - but it could change.
As the presidential election is around the corner, the real question is, will Circo's cookie sales reflect how Brooklyn residents vote?
We'll have to wait until Nov. 5 to find out.
