You Can Now Buy Bags Of Ben and Jerry's Cookie Dough Chunks To Snack On

Friday night's TV chill looks like it's about to get a whole lot better with this tasty new snack.

Ben & Jerry's cookie dough-flavoured ice-cream has long been one of our favourites to indulge in, but now the brand has only gone and launched a bag of actual cookie dough chunks.

Yes that's right, an entire bag filled with sweet and salty cookie bites that basically are the best bit about the ice-cream flavour anyway - less time wasted hunting through the pot for them.

They have been around for a while in the US, but now they have been launched at Asda in the UK too and we couldn't be happier.

We cannot wait to settle down and watch a film on Friday night with a bag of these.

They were launched just yesterday and you can find them in Asda's freezer section for £3.99 for a 170g bag, but they don't appear to be available online just yet.

You will also be able to snap them up at all other major retailers later this week.

RRP of the 170g bag is £4 (

And unlike if you were to make raw cookie dough yourself, the balls are made from pasteurised eggs and heat-treated flour - so none of the mixture is raw (which can sometimes cause illness). So feel free to binge away.

We cannot wait to get our hands on a bag. Plus, if these are successful, we might have bigger things to come, because the US already has several different flavours available.

From a double chocolate flavour to a peanut butter version, half baked and even a vegan alternative, we're hoping all the fabulous-sounding options are brought to the UK ASAP.

Ben & Jerry's obviously know what we're like only too well, because in their description of the dough balls, they acknowledge that all too often we find ourselves scavenging through the ice cream tubs for the best bit.

It said: "We've freed the chunks! We know how it goes: sometimes when you're digging in to a pint of ice cream you're really just chasing those chunks with reckless abandon.

"Go straight for the good stuff with a bag of totally snackable Cookie Dough Chunks!"

Adding: "The snackable dough chunks are the same sticky, smooshy and instantly identifiable recipe, loaded with Fairtrade chocolate".

Pass us a bag, or six please.
