Cookie Monster as a Dipped Cone? Yes, Please!
Rumor has it that Dairy Queen has been testing out a new Cookie Monster-inspired dipped cone that’s designed to be the ultimate cookies and cream treat. The dip is said to feature actual bits of cookies and cream to add extra flavor and texture to the classic DQ ice cream cone.
It’s not yet widely known which stores already have this new flavor. However, Dairy Queen is known to test products at least one season ahead of an official release. That said, we could be looking at a launch later in the year or probably even in 2025.
What People Are Saying
Social media conversations on this rumored future release have begun and it’s already a mix of emotions. People are definitely excited to see this Cookie Monster Dipped Cone come true, with some saying that they’ve already seen it on the window of their local DQ a couple weeks back.
Others can’t help but notice that the appearance of the ice cream cone seems lacking in terms of giving an obvious Cookie Monster look and vibe, with two commenters suggesting that a true Cookie Monster-inspired ice cream cone would be complete with googly eyes and a chocolate chip cookie topper. Some have even expressed concerns, likely due to the speckled blue color of the dip. But majority of fans do seem to like the the idea of a blue cookies and cream dipped ice cream cone, with one commenter going as far as to say that they would totally buy gallons of the Cookie Monster Dip.
