I'm actually getting 3 cookies:

"XSRF-TOKEN" => "9QD4JhJFKGx1C7CoTVRmr7CLMepjEOwbkf4kDimH"
"site_name" => "ddj5gOwBAuZ1nQjqUgBQcXTiuGCJ0ewRb7rP9vks"
"ddj5gOwBAuZ1nQjqUgBQcXTiuGCJ0ewRb7rP9vks" => "{"data":"a:4:{s:6:\"_token\";s:40:\"9QD4JhJFKGx1C7CoTVRmr7CLMepjEOwbkf4kDimH\";s:9:\"_previous\";a:1:{s:3:\"url\";s:20:\"http:\/\/site.test\/csrf\";}s:6:\"_flash\";a:2:{s:3:\"old\";a:0:{}s:3:\"new\";a:0:{}}s:3:\"url\";a:1:{s:8:\"intended\";s:25:\"http:\/\/site.test\/api\/stats\";}}","expires":1584961961}"

Is this a fresh Laravel application?

I was actually facing this problem and tried to debug it.

Are you using any 3rd party packages? 🤔

Ah, it was because I had SESSION_DRIVER set to 'cookie', so of course it's passing back the session data in a cookie, changing to 'file' will keep all this server side.
