It’s almost that time of year where we swap all of our typical foods for pumpkin-flavored versions. That means your desserts will be loaded with sweet pumpkin flavor, including Pillsbury’s Pumpkin Cookie Dough. The refrigerated aisle is calling our names.

The ready-to-bake cookie dough is pumpkin-flavored and mixed with cream cheese-flavored chips. Although the flavor isn’t new, they’re certainly different than they were last year. Pillsbury is in the process of making all of its cookie dough products safe to eat raw by the end of this summer, including the Pumpkin. So you won’t have to wait until they’re done baking before you eat them. In fact, you don’t have to bake them at all!

Just like the old version, the Pumpkin Cookie Dough is made up of 12 precut cookies, not Pillsbury’s usual 24. That means if you choose to bake them, you’ll get giant cookies (or a couple more mouthfuls of dough).

Best Products has reached out to Pillsbury to find out when exactly we can expect to find the new Pumpkin Cookie Dough in stores. Last year, they were available from August to November at major retailers, so hopefully we can expect the same now.
