Of course, that\u2019s after you pick up paper towels, frozen chicken, a pillow-sized bag of chips, rotisserie chicken, a bag of romaine hearts that\u2019ll rot before you get halfway through them, batteries, and a bunch of other things that\u2019ll easily total over $200.<\/p>\n<p>The seasonal dessert at the Costco food court features mint-flavored soft serve swirled with chocolate sauce and topped with more chocolate sauce and cookie crumbles.<\/p>\n<p>Much like everything at Costco, this sundae is more than you need and offers an amazing price. It\u2019s large enough and inexpensive enough to make the Oreo Shamrock McFlurry look McFeeble and green with size envy. Speaking of color, I\u2019m trying to remember whether Costco\u2019s dessert had a green tint. I keep squinting at the photos above and swearing I see some green, but I could\u2019ve sworn the creamy base was just white while I was eating it. Maybe the food court\u2019s LED lighting was doing something strange to my phone\u2019s camera. However, in the end, it doesn\u2019t really matter, because once you mix things, the chocolate syrup blends into the soft serve, turning everything grey. Delicious grey.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/costcodblchomsd2.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Costco\u2019s Double Chocolate Mint Sundae top with cookie crumbles and chocolate syrup\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-75876\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/costcodblchomsd2.jpeg?resize=600%2C600&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/costcodblchomsd2.jpeg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/costcodblchomsd2.jpeg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/costcodblchomsd2.jpeg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/costcodblchomsd2.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The mint in this sundae rises to a level of slightly chewed Wrigley\u2019s Doublemint Gum, and the chocolate, even though my sundae looks like it got caught in a chocolate flash flood, still allows the mint to come through. However, if you want a stronger minty punch, I feel McDonald\u2019s Oreo Shamrock McFlurry has Costco\u2019s offering beat, but only slightly. Also, because it\u2019s smaller, the McFlurry has a better soft-serve-to-cookie ratio. By the time I got to the bottom half of the sundae\u2019s cup, the cookie crumbles made rare appearances. <\/p>\n<p>However, while Costco\u2019s Double Chocolate Mint Sundae may not be as minty or have as many cookie bits as McDonald\u2019s offering, it still tastes amazing, and I say the chocolate syrup makes it more decadent. Also, its low $2.99 price for something twice the size of a McFlurry makes it taste a bit sweeter. I hope it returns every year so we can celebrate Costco Double Chocolate Mint Sundae Season!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> $2.99<br \/> <br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 8 out of 10<br \/> <br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> 790 calories.
