Oreo cookies will soon be available on the candy aisle.
Mondelez International, the company that owns the makers of Oreo, said in a news release Monday that a line of three Oreo candy bars are being released.
The candy bars use Milka European chocolate candy and Oreo cookies.
"The new chocolate candy bar line comes in an assortment of different formats, all of which feature bits of Oreo cookies and vanilla creme filling alongside Milka's smooth European chocolate candy," the release said.
USA Today reported that the candies have been previously available overseas already.
