Cookies and cream (or cookies 'n cream) is a variety of ice cream, milkshake, and other desserts that includes chocolate sandwich cookies, with the most popular version containing hand or pre-crumbled cookies from Nabisco's Oreo brand under a licensing agreement, or else, containing crumbles of a similar cookie of a different brand or private label. Cookies and cream ice cream generally mixes crumbled chocolate sandwich cookies into vanilla ice cream, though variations exist which might instead use chocolate, coffee or mint ice cream.

- In a 2005 press release, Blue Bell Creameries claimed they were the first company to mass-produce the flavor, in 1980.[6] In 2006, The New York Times reported that Blue Bell made "no claim to have invented it but certainly pioneered the flavor."[7] However, as of 2020, the company's website proclaimed, "We were first to create this innovative flavor."[8] Blue Bell Creameries applied to register the trademark "Cookies 'n Cream" in 1981.[9]
- John Harrison, the official taster for Dreyer's/Edy's Ice Cream, claims he invented it first for the company in 1982.[10] [11]
In 1983, cookies and cream became one of the top five best-selling flavors of ice cream.[12]
