It really is the most wonderful time of the year, and no, we’re not talking about the holiday decorations in the parks, or even Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party or Jollywood Nights. No, what makes this the best time of the year is all the holiday treats, and they have officially arrived in the parks!

This viral snack has CHANGED

Well, we recently paid a visit to Disney’s Animal Kingdom to try three of these new treats, and we’re going to tell you all about them. Spoiler alert: you’ll want to get all three, so pack your stretchy pants for your next Animal Kingdom day!

We’re starting at Flame Tree Barbecue, where you can now get the Gingerbread Cheesecake Pop for $6.29. It’s made with gingerbread cheesecake mousse, spiced graham cracker, and milk chocolate. Cheesecake? Gingerbread? We’re already in love with this baby. Plus, it’s on a stick? We are SOLD. It has lovely, warm ginger notes that blend well with the tart, creamy cheesecake. Even the chocolate shell offers a nice touch of sweetness that’s JUST enough.

This tastes like Christmas, and we are here for it. We were also surprised at how big it is. It’s also a rich dessert, so you could even share it if you want. Whatever you decide, we would make a special trip to Animal Kingdom to get it again while it’s available during the holidays.

We also made our way over to Terra Treats to get the Reindeer Sundae, which is made with dulce de leche ice cream, espresso caramel, coffee-coconut streusel, coconut cake, chocolate antlers, and an M&M’s milk chocolate candy for $8.49. Although it has a lot going on, it is a more sophisticated sundae than what we expected. The ice cream is creamy and so rich! The espresso caramel blends the coffee flavor enough that it cuts through the sweet caramel.

This sundae also has coconut flakes throughout that give it some toasty notes. You get some crunchy texture from the streusel, and the best bites are when you get all of those elements together. This is probably not a sundae kids would appreciate, especially with the bitter coffee flavors, but adults are going to really love its complex flavors.

Surprisingly complex

Finally, the viral Cookie Dough Brownie Ice Cream Sandwich is now the Festive Cookie Dough Brownie Ice Cream Sandwich for $8.79. However, it pretty much remains the same — it’s now just cookie dough with holiday sprinkles layered with vanilla ice cream and a fudgy brownie. All the flavors remain intact, with just the addition of some crunch from the holiday sprinkles.

You get that rich chocolate chip cookie dough with that thick and creamy ice cream with that chocolatey brownie, and it all just kinda melts on the tongue for one of the most satisfying treats in Disney World. So, yes, expect long lines for this one, too.
