The ice cream features Dunkin’ Donuts coffee and donut flavored ice creams, donut pieces, and a chocolate flavored icing ribbon. The ice cream is made using Dunkin’ Donuts Original Blend Coffee and Plain Cake Munchkins Donut Hole treats.

FAST FOOD NEWS: Dunkin’ Donuts Chips Ahoy! Donuts, Coolatta, and Iced Coffee

Dunkin Donuts Chips Ahoy Donuts

Chips Ahoy! is the Jan Brady of Nabisco cookies and, of course, Oreo is the Marcia Brady. While Oreo has been used in numerous shakes, snacks, and desserts, the crunchy chocolate chip cookie hasn’t seen as much love.

But Dunkin’ Donuts is showing a little love with a line of Chips Ahoy! products that includes two new donuts — Chips Ahoy! Crème Donut and Chips Ahoy! Crunch Donut.

The Chips Ahoy! Crème Donut is a yeast shell filled with cookie dough-flavored buttercreme and topped with chocolate icing and crumbled Chips Ahoy! cookies. The Chips Ahoy! Crunch Donut is a yeast ring frosted with chocolate icing and topped with crumbled Chips Ahoy! cookies.

The Chips Ahoy! Creme Donut has 380 calories, 19 grams of fat, 9 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 420 milligrams of sodium, 49 grams of carbohydrates, 1 gram of fiber, 26 grams of sugar, and 4 grams of protein. The Chips Ahoy! Crunch Donut has 310 calories, 17 grams of fat, 7 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 360 milligrams of sodium, 36 grams of carbohydrates, 1 gram of fiber, 15 grams of sugar, and 4 grams of protein.

If you need to wash down those donuts with an appropriately flavored beverage, Dunkin’ is also offering a Chips Ahoy! flavored iced coffee and Chips Ahoy! Coolatta.

All products are available for a limited time.

If you’ve tried any of them, let us know what you think of them in the comments.
