If you’re a Cubs fan and you have a homemade chocolate chip cookie recipe you’d put up against anyone’s, the club just announced a promotional campaign tailored specifically for you.
The Cubs, celebrating their 150th anniversary in 2026, are seeking participants for the “Cubs 150th Cookie Challenge.” The winning cookie recipe will be served at Wrigley Field during the Cubs 150th Anniversary Celebration on Aug. 29.
The winning baker, meanwhile, will receive on-field recognition, Cubs 150th anniversary merchandise, a Cubs chef jacket and apron, home baking supplies and two tickets to a regular season home game.
Cookie connoisseurs can submit their recipes at cubs.com/cookies through 12:59 a.m. ET on May 1. Only amateur chefs can enter, and you must prove your Cubs fandom by sharing your favorite team memory or a photograph of you in Cubs gear.
Chicago-based pastry chef and restaurateur Mindy Segal will lead the judging, which will evaluate recipes based on taste, creativity and feasibility of production at Wrigley Field. A selected group of semifinalists will next be asked to submit a video “demonstrating their baking process and personality.”
The competition will then wrap up with a live bake-off on Aug. 4 — National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day — at Wrigley Field before the Cubs take on the Dodgers.
