Girl Scout Cookie Season is upon us! The lineup expands to 11 total varieties this year with the addition of Exploremores. Girl Scouts describe this new cookie as Rocky Road ice cream-inspired, featuring chocolate, marshmallow, and toasted almond cr\u00e8me.<\/p>\n
First impression: two sleeves in the box. Thin Mints energy, which gets me hype because they\u2019re a classic favorite of mine.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
As soon as I open the package, I notice a strong marshmallow aroma. The cookies look just like the photo on the box (love when expectations match reality). They twist apart like an Oreo, which feels intentional given the sandwich-cookie setup.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Flavor-wise, the almond stays extremely subtle. I don\u2019t get toasted nuttiness or aggressive almond extract notes. Honestly, I almost wonder if I\u2019m imagining it. Double chocolate dominates. Not deep, dark cacao energy. More of a classic chocolate cookie vibe.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The marshmallow shows up more in the smell than in the taste. The cr\u00e8me layer runs much thinner than an Oreo\u2019s, so don\u2019t expect that thick, fluffy middle.<\/p>\n
Sweetness lands right in the standard Girl Scout range. It tastes balanced and actually less sweet than a Samoa, which I appreciate.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
I dunk one in milk to see if it enhances the almond or unlocks more Rocky Road vibes. It doesn\u2019t. The milk amplifies the marshmallow note instead, and I prefer the cookie plain.<\/p>\n
Texture-wise, the cookie feels softer than an Oreo. Think chocolate Teddy Grahams rather than that crisp cookie snap.<\/p>\n
Within the full Girl Scout lineup, I like it. Just don\u2019t expect full Rocky Road in cookie form. Go in thinking double chocolate sandwich cookie and you\u2019ll be set. It doesn\u2019t dethrone my personal favorites, but I appreciate what it adds to the roster.<\/p>\n
