Milano cookies now come in Toasted Marshmallow

Milano cookies might be nearly everyone’sfavorite Pepperidge Farm treat— and for some the best cookies ever invented — but we’re not sure how you’ll feel about this latest version.

The Milano, which now comes in many varieties — including the sensible dark chocolate and mint kinds — has transformed into a new flavor, Toasted Marshmallow.

“December is officially here and with the cold, wintry month comes fire pits and roasted marshmallows,” the cookies are described in a release.

The flavor may be too much for Milano purest or could be just the right mix for those looking for a holiday indulgence. For now, the new flavor is only available at Target, but will launch nationwide on Jan. 1.

If you want to really be daring, try these recipes, which incorporate the new flavor:
