Girl Scout Cookie Season Has Officially Begun, Meaning You Can *Finally* Try Their New ‘Adventurefuls’

Sorry Samoas, Thin Mints and Tagalongs—there’s a new cookie in town and we can’t wait to get our hands on it. With the start of 2022’s cookie season, The Girl Scouts just launched their newest addition to the cookie fam, Adventurefuls.

Per a press release, the new biscuit is described as an “indulgent brownie-inspired cookie with caramel-flavored crème and a hint of sea salt.” The dessert is topped with extra chocolate drizzle for good measure. Frankly, we’re surprised the organization didn’t come up with a brownie-like flavor sooner, considering an entire rank of young scouts in the organization are known as “Brownies.” Nevertheless, we got a sneak peek of the new treat, and it’s just as delicious as it sounds. The texture of the cookie is crisp and light, while the decadent caramel crème offers smooth, sweet-and-salty contrast.

Girl Scouts of the USA

The unique name is tied to the organization’s overall mission. “Adventurefuls take cookie lovers on a delicious taste adventure, just like Girl Scouts take on their own amazing adventures all year long,” part of the release reads.

The new flavor is the first to launch since the company introduced the Toast-Yay!, a French toast-flavored cookie shaped like a miniature piece of bread, at the start of 2021. The newest addition joins the yummy lineup of cookies including Thin Mints, Tagalongs, Samoas, Do-si-dos, Trefoils, Lemon-Ups and Toffee-tastics.

There are a few routes you can take to order your faves. If you know a Girl Scout, reach out to her to find out how she’s selling her spoils this year. If you don’t know one, visit the Girl Scout cookie website or use the official Girl Scout Cookie Finder app to spot a cookie booth near you (if there are any in your area). Starting February 18, you can simply enter your zip code into the online Cookie Finder to buy from a local troop or donate them to first responders and local causes.

Even cooler, you’ll also be able to snag sweets via DoorDash this year. Download the app and search "Girl Scouts" to see if on-demand delivery is available yet in your area.
