The Ben & Jerry's Cookie Dough you know and love started with a simple suggestion: What if you put chunks of chocolate chip cookie dough into vanilla ice cream? That was the amazing anonymous idea submitted way back in the early days of our first Burlington, Vermont, USA, Scoop Shop. We used to have a bulletin board where people could suggest new flavours for Jerry and Ben to make, and this idea stood out. The folks at the Scoop Shop immediately went to work mixing up a batch of Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough dessert. It was an instant hit.The Ben & Jerry's Cookie Dough you know and love started with a simple suggestion: What if you put chunks of chocolate chip cookie dough into vanilla ice cream?

Initially, this flavour ice cream was only available at the Scoop Shop. When we decided to sell it in tubs, we had to figure out how to get that familiar cookie dough taste, consistency and texture at ice cream temperatures. We teamed up with local producer Rhino Foods and, over an incredible 6 years, we perfected the cookie dough found in our tubs today.
