Girl Scouts Added A New Gluten Free Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookie To Their Lineup

Carissa Dunlap

Girl Scout cookie season is almost upon us, and I honestly cannot wait for the abundance of Thin Mints and Samoas coming my way.

There also might be another reason to look forward to it. The Girl Scouts revealed on Tuesday a new gluten-free Caramel Chocolate Chip cookie. 

According to the Girl Scout press release, “the new Caramel Chocolate Chip cookie features rich caramel semi-sweet chocolate chips, and a hint of sea salt in a chewy cookie.” TBH it sounds amazing, especially if you love a good salty-sweet combo. 

The announcement on the Girl Scouts website also says the organization will release the new cookie flavor in 2019. So yes, unfortunately, we will have to wait another long five months to get our hands on the chewy treat. The cookie selling season doesn’t officially start until January, so if you get any cash from the holiday season, save some of it!  

Caramel Chocolate Chip is one of two gluten-free cookie offerings for January 2019. They will be selling it alongside their Toffee-tastic cookie. I will warn you though the Girl scouts say that the availability of both cookies vary from council to council. Gluten-free options tend to cost more than our favorite classic cookies. So start wishing on some stars that this cookie will be sold in your area, because I know I will be.
