In the 1990s, when Jacqueline Dole was just a schoolgirl, she coveted the Cosmic Brownies she saw in her classmates’ lunchboxes. In late 2019, memories of those fudgy Little Debbie treats led Dole, now in her 30s and the owner of Biddeford-based The Parlor Ice Cream Co., to re-create them in the form of an ice cream flavor.
Dole’s version of Cosmic Brownie – milk chocolate ice cream with brownie chunks – even contains the rainbow sprinkle “meteors” (candy-coated chocolate chips) that are scattered on top of the brownie’s thick layer of frosting. “It’s just not a Cosmic Brownie without those special sprinkles,” Dole said.
