Don’t you wish Girl Scout Cookie season was all year round? We sure do! From finding out which Girl Scout Cookie is most loved in each state, to hunting down Girl Scout Cookie cupcakes, we just can’t get enough of the iconic treats.
Of course, while Thin Mints are everybody’s favorite, we love to see a new Girl Scout Cookie in the lineup. And the Girl Scouts are happy to provide, with a delicious new flavor that dropped in January 2022.
The New Girl Scout Cookie for 2022 Will Be… Adventurefuls!
According to the Girl Scouts, this flavor offers an adventure for your taste buds, similar to the adventures the troops go on all year long. With a brownie-inspired soft chocolate cookie, dreamy caramel center, drizzles of chocolate sauce and just a hint of sea salt, we definitely agree that these cookies sound pretty adventurous.
This is the latest addition to the Girl Scouts lineup after last year’s Toast-Yay, a French toast-inspired cookie covered in delicious icing, and 2020’s Lemon-Up, a citrusy shortbread cookie. Considering how much people loved those flavors, we’re sure troops will sell out of Adventurefuls pretty quickly!
For old times’ sake, take a look through discontinued Girl Scout Cookies from years past.
When Is Girl Scout Cookie Season?
Adventurefuls were released in January 2022 and can be bought from your local Girl Scout troop anytime between January and April, aka Girl Scout Cookie season. You can also buy Girl Scout Cookies online again this year. If your local troop can’t come to your door, you can still support them!
If you really want to go all out, pair your favorite cookie with a Girl Scout Cookie-flavored coffee for a truly sweet experience. And don’t forget to help your favorite Girl Scout earn 2022’s special Betty White patch!
Scout Out a Girl Scout Cookie Copycat
Inspired by: Caramel DeLites (aka Samoas)Coconut lovers, this one's for you. These copycat Girl Scout cookies are the ultimate indulgence. While they take some time to make, trust us—they're worth the wait.
Psst! If you want the real deal, here's
how to order Girl Scout cookies.
Inspired by: Thin MintsWe all know it to be true: Thin Mints are the queen of all Girl Scout cookies. These crisp chocolate cookies are dipped in a to-die-for chocolate coating. Try them straight out of the fridge or freezer for a cool, minty treat.
Were you looking for the
perfect copycat Samoas? Girl Scout Cookie season only happens once a year, but we found year-round dupes that stack up pretty well against the originals.
Inspired by: LemonadesThese lightly flavored shortbread cookies are topped with a citrusy glaze, just like their scouting counterparts.
Inspired by: Peanut Butter Patties (aka Tagalongs)A cookie as good as a Tagalong must be hard to replicate at home, right? Not quite! Using homemade cookies and a smooth chocolate coating, you can get close to the real thing when your cookie stash is low.
Inspired by: Do-si-dos (aka Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies)These classic copycat Girl Scout cookies are packed with peanut butter flavor—in the cookie
and in the filling.
Inspired by: Shortbread (aka Trefoils)While they're not shaped like the iconic Girl Scout logo, these shortbread snacks are super tasty. Try them with a cup of coffee for an afternoon pick-me-up.
Inspired by: Girl Scout S'moresGirl Scouts first published the recipe for the original s'more all the way back in the '20s. Today, they reinvented the campfire snack as an anytime cookie much like these. For an authentic s'mores experience,
swap the cookie butter for a chocolatey spread.
Inspired by: Lemon-UpsThe Girl Scouts have two lemony cookies in their roster. The Lemon-Ups are nice and crisp, and they come stamped with an inspiring message. This
copycat cookie recipe tastes pretty close, but with the subtle addition of orange, too.
Inspired by: AdventurefulsOne of the newest Girl Scout cookies, Adventurefuls pack caramel creme into a brownie-flavored dough. For an authentic copycat recipe, skip the nuts on these chocolate caramel thumbprints and sub in a sprinkle of sea salt.
Inspired by: Toast-Yay!We love fueling up with French toast before a big day, and these copycat Girl Scout cookies are full of that sweet, cinnamon-y flavor.
Bonus: Original Girl Scout CookiesTo commemorate the 60th anniversary of the first nationwide sale, the Girl Scouts shared the original sugar cookie recipe used when the troops made their own cookies.
