If you've ever pulled up to KFC with a hankering for a zinger burger, some nuggs and a Pepsi the size of your head and thought, I could really go for something sweet, yet also fried for afters... you're in luck. The beloved dirty bird has dropped some Fried Cookie Dough realness and the best part? It'll only set you back $2.95. Bloody ripper mate!

The fast food chain describes the new menu addition as "an irresistible, melt-in-your-mouth delight designed to perfectly cap off your KFC meal" and promises the dough balls "will set off a sweet sensation in your mouth, with its oozing chocolate chip deliciousness in every bite". High cholesterol never sounded so damn erotic!

These mouthwatering bad boys are in stores across the country from today (August 6) so tell your boss you have an "urgent" appointment, jump in your car and head to your local KFC. Sadly, this delectable menu item is more of a summer fling kind of relationship than a "let's grow old together and die within seconds of each other like that couple in The Notebook" kind of love as they are only sticking around until September 2. So, be fast, and don't get too attached, friends!

As Tami Cunningham, CMO at KFC Australia, says: “We’re always seeking to delight fans of our iconic fried chicken with new and exciting taste sensations, and we're thrilled to introduce this delightfully moreish treat for those with a sweet tooth to enjoy after their KFC meal. However, like all good things, Kentucky Fried Cookie Dough won't be available forever so head into store and grab them while they’re here.”

Now, here's the 411: The Fried Cookie Dough can be purchased from participating restaurants nationwide as a standalone item or as part of a box meal. Available as 3 pieces for $2.95, 6 pieces for $5.95 or as part of the Complete Treat which includes a Zinger Burger, 3 Wicked Wings, 3 pieces of Fried Cookie Dough, chips, potato and gravy and a drink. Fried Cookie Dough is also available for delivery via the KFC App, so you can satisfy those sweet cravings without ever leaving your couch or missing an episode of whatever you're bingeing on Netflix.

See you at the drive-through, people! Don't tell my boss.

KFC Fried Cookie Dough: The Verdict

Love it or hate it, you have to respect KFC Australia’s commitment to pairing some perplexing food combinations in the name of fun and calories. From ‘The Original Crispery’ pop-up in Sydney, which brought fried PB&J sandwiches, fluffy fried cheesecake, green chips, and more, to the more recent ‘Waffle Double’, which swapped the wholesome bun with two slabs of chicken, they know how to get fried.

This time, KFC is releasing a brand-new treat for the first time: Fried Cookie Dough. It arrives in restaurants around Australia today (August 6th, 2024) and will be available until September 2nd, 2024. If you’re wondering what’s inside, it’s exactly what it says on the tin: a scoop of chocolate chip cookie dough fried to perfection.
