A popular chocolate chip cookie is getting an update to its original recipe and could taste different.
Mondelēz International, the maker of Chips Ahoy!, announced this week that it's giving "the biggest update" to the cookie recipe in nearly a decade.
The new recipe for original Chips Ahoy! cookies features a new chocolate chip, which has "a higher cacao content and a higher concentrate Madagascar vanilla extract resulting in a well-rounded chocolate flavor while reducing bitterness."
The brand also touted a "richer cookie flavor" that fans can expect, in addition to a new mixing process to create a better cookie texture, and new package design with updates to the logo.
The updated Chips Ahoy! cookies will begin hitting store shelves in March and be available nationwide beginning in April, the company said.
As part of the launch, fans can also enter to win a "Chips Ahoy! MMMproved Getaway Sweepstakes" which comes with an all-expenses paid weekend stay at a luxury beach house in Malibu. To enter, fans should follow Chips Ahoy! cookies on Instagram or Facebook, commenting on the pinned post on the brand's Instagram feed and Facebook page.
