Just two and a half months ago, we found out that Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen was testing out Chocolate Beignets in select restaurants. The trial must have went very well, because beginning on Dec. 14, you can get them at Popeyes locations nationwide for a limited time!

There’s one piece to this puzzle that we didn’t know before: the new treat involved Hershey’s The warm, pillow-y beignets are stuffed with Hershey’s chocolate and covered in powdered sugar. You have your choice of a 3-piece for $1.99 or 12-piece for $7.49 — guess which one we’re ordering.

Since beignets are inevitably messy no matter how neatly you try to eat them, Popeyes is also launching the Beignet Camo hoodie for $35. The limited-edition black sweatshirt is covered in a powdered sugar design, so it’s perfect to wear when you’re treating yourself to the new Chocolate Beignets. Dessert, but make it fashion.

Better make a trip to Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen — and, this time, not for a chicken sandwich. The fast food spot is testing out chocolate beignets, so you can enjoy the tough-to-track-down treat whenever that sweet craving hits.

The warm treat consists of fried dough that is stuffed with a chocolate center and dusted with powdered sugar. You can get them in three sizes: three chocolate beignets for $1.99, six for $3.99, and 12 for $7.49. Chewboom first posted about the news, but FOODBEAST received confirmation from the chain that it’s actually happening.

“As a brand from New Orleans we are always looking to bring new dishes and desserts from our hometown to the menu, but at this time the beignets are only available at select restaurants,” Popeyes told FOODBEAST.

Don’t start freaking out just yet that the chocolate beignets aren’t available near you. So far, they’ve only been spotted in the Boston area — however, Popeyes has confirmed that while they are limited now, they will eventually be hitting menus nationwide.

Now that we think about it, it’s surprising that Popeyes hasn’t offered this treat before. After all, beignets are a classic French Quarter dessert, and Popeyes is based in New Orleans. Better late than never, though, right?
