Ever since Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield began making ice cream in 1978 at their first Scoop Shop in Vermont, one thing was obvious: they were going to be known for having the funkiest and chunkiest flavors the ice cream on the market. Today, the newest Ben & Jerry’s ice cream flavor, Chewy Gooey Cookie, may be its funkiest and chunkiest yet.
Chewy Gooey Cookie, which has started to pop up on the shelves of freezer cabinets across the USA, features milk chocolate and coconut ice creams with fudge flakes, shortbread cookies and caramel swirls.
“This flavor is loaded. Period. You cannot add any more chunks than what we’ve packed in there,” said Craig Koskiniemi, the “flavor guru” who led the development of Chewy Gooey Cookie. “It has a perfect balance of milk chocolate and coconut as a base, the caramel swirl for sweetness, and a great cookie crunch for texture.”
Chewy Gooey Cookie is offered at a suggested retail price of $4.99-$5.49. It will also be available in a caramel-lined waffle cone at participating Scoop Shops across the United States in the coming weeks.
Headquartered in Burlington, Vermont, Ben & Jerry’s super-premium ice cream and Non-Dairy/vegan desserts are distributed in over 35 countries in supermarkets, grocery stores, convenience stores, franchised Scoop Shops, and via on-demand delivery services. The company is wholly owned subsidiary of Unilever.
