With great success stemming from a brand identity that combines culture, lifestyle, and a sense of belonging, they have opened over 20 locations across California. It was only recently that the Costco Afters Cookie Monster Ice Cream treats became available in Costco stores.
Product Overview
Each box comes with 10 bars at the price of $17. Each bar comes out to be a little under $2. The cookie monster bar is made from Madagascar vanilla, chocolate chip cookies, chocolate sandwich cookies, and fudge swirls.
Costco Afters Cookie Monster Ice Cream Rating and Review
If you have a big sweet tooth, then this treat is for you. The fudge shell was quite thick, and the vanilla ice cream base was a vibrant blue. Each bite included a cookie piece, making it very satisfying. It is a pretty indulgent treat, and since I tend to prefer desserts that aren’t too sweet, I don’t think I would reach for these regularly. The ice cream was dense, yet smooth and creamy. Pretty solid dessert but too indulgent for me.
