Default Does your Dairy Queen serve chocolate soft-serve ice cream?

Not the dipped ice cream, chocolate ice cream from the dispenser. I've actually been disappointed to find out that Texas doesn't seem to have chocolate soft-serve ice cream at their Dairy Queens.

I'd always preferred Baskin Robbins, but dh likes Dairy Queens and I warmed up to it when I tried their chocolate soft-serve ice cream cones in Montana. Now that we've moved to Texas, I've recently found out that they only serve vanilla soft-serve ice cream cones or the dipped cones.

I'm so bummed.

NOPE!! I quit going there when they stopped. I went to a real mom pop ice cream shop. They served it there. It was a hot spot in a very very small town. People travel from all over (from the bigger towns that have Dairy Queen) to go this small time ice cream shop.

Unless it's changed, some stores here do and some don't. I didn't even realize that they had chocolate until my oldest asked for it, since I don't care for chocolate ice cream.

Yes. It's a new thing for ours though. I was really excited, DQ soft serve is my fav (don't tell Baskin or Robbins please)!

I'm pretty sure ours here do. Nothing else is quite like a Dairy Queen hot fudge sundae with chocolate ice cream....yum!
