Fast-food and coffee chains want to serve up drinks and desserts that are flavored like chocolate chip cookies, but these aren’t just any old chocolate chip cookies. No, chains including Dunkin’ Donuts, Dairy Queen, and now Burger King are selling Chips Ahoy-branded items in their restaurants, a confusing bit of cross-branding.
A new offering from Burger King is even stranger. It may be in the testing phase, and was spotted in Visalia, California. It combines two flavors to create the Chips Ahoy S’mores Milkshake. What is so s’morey about it isn’t entirely clear, unless the ice cream is supposed to be marshmallow-flavored. The reader who reported its existence to The Impulsive Buy says that it consists of…crumbled-up chocolate chip cookies and ice creamy goodness, with whipped topping.
There are no graham crackers in sight, and no chocolate other than the chips. On the other hand, now I want to try pressing a toasted marshmallow between two cookies. Someone find me a campfire.
