H-E-B launches cookie for disaster relief

Houston-based H-E-B is taking Hurricane Harvey relief efforts into its own hands by launching a new private brand cream-filled cookie called Choco Coco Twisters.

Available since May 6, H-E-B Choco Coco Twisters have coconut crème and bits of real coconut candy flakes sandwiched between two chocolate cookies to create a delicious treat.

Available through the summer, the limited-edition cookie is among the more than 1,000 H-E-B Select Ingredients products, which are made without artificial flavors, high fructose corn syrup, artificial colors, and hundreds of other synthetic ingredients, according to the company.

The grocer says 5 percent of cookie proceeds will help people affected by Texas disasters, with funds donated directly to the American Red Cross.
