Following the availability of cookie cream chocolate eggs in Canada, the Kit Kat Cookie Dough Bar is following suit. The cookie dough-stuffed Kit Kats are available on Canadian shelves and have also been extremely popular in Europe since their release last August.
Described as a "chunky, king-size version of a basic Kit Kat ridge," the cookie dough-filled candy bar has both the delicious and creamy dough and the original crispy wafer, plus the irresistible layer of chocolate. Although the Kit Kat Cookie Dough Bar has yet to make its debut in the States, keen snackers can order the treat online on Amazon from Ireland at a significant cost markup.
This is the second cookie dough-related candy to make news recently, as consumers continue to enjoy new fillings in beloved snacks.
