Chance The Rapper may have to take the “rapper” out of his name and replace it with “ice cream man” instead.
The Chicago-based rapper has partnered with Ben & Jerry’s to put together a new flavor called “Mint Chocolate Chance.” If you’re a mint chocolate lover, this is the right one for you.
Ben & Jerry’s made it official with a tweet on Dec. 16.

The new ice cream will have a mint flavor filled with brownies, something Chance loved as a child. His mother would make brownies, and he would put them in his mint ice cream, creating a delightful dessert for himself. His daughters also helped with creating the flavor as well.
To make sure everybody can enjoy this new flavor, it will be offered as a traditional ice cream, as well as a non-dairy dessert. Both versions will be in stores across the United States at the beginning of 2022.
SocialWorks, a nonprofit that Chance has had for five years, will receive a portion of the proceeds from the flavored ice cream.
