New cookies are joining Girl Scout Femme.
A rocky road ice cream inspired sandwich cookie, ExploreMores concludes the lineup for the 2026 Girl Scout Cookie season.
“After a classic chocolate snack… Cookies capture the spirit of endless exploration that drives Girl Scouts,” the American Girl Scouts said in a September 9 news release.
Like thin mint and Samoa, ExploreMores can be purchased nationwide, both online and in person, from January to April 2026, both online and in-person at your local booth.
The US Girl Scouts will also work closely with Adobe, which serves as a national sponsor of the 2026 Girl Scout Cookie Program.
“Through collaboration with Adobe, girls are encouraged to express their individuality and think creatively to advance their goals for this Girl Scout Cookie Season,” according to GSUSA.
Here are some things you need to know about ExploreMores, including when you can order.
More about ExploreMores
Inspired by Rocky Road Ice Cream, the sandwich cookie is “filled with delicious flavors of chocolate, marshmallows and toasted almond-style cream.”
Proceeds from each box of Girl Scout Cookies, including ExploreMores, stay with the local military and councils to fund “life-changing programs, experiences and learning” throughout the year.
As a result of her experience, Girl Scouts gained the leadership and entrepreneurial skills needed for “bright futures” and earned badges for their first cookie business, cookie clients and cookie teams.
Some of these skills include the ability to set goals, make decisions, manage money, develop people’s skills and learn business ethics.
“Each cookie season is where girls push their limits, embrace challenges, think creatively and believe in their potential,” Gususa said.
