A regional grocery store recently went viral after unveiling an unusual \u2014 and intriguing \u2014 treat: butter-dipped ice cream cones.<\/p>\n

Stew Leonard’s, a Connecticut-based chain with additional locations in New York and New Jersey, posted an Instagram video of the dessert on Nov. 20.<\/p>\n

The video shows an employee dipping a vanilla soft-serve cone<\/a> in a bowl of melted Stew Leonard’s-brand butter.<\/p>\n

“Soft serve \u2026 dipped in real butter,” the post read. “Yes, we’re testing it. Yes, it\u2019s insane.”<\/p>\n

The chain also shared a video of its CEO, Stew Leonard Jr., trying the dish himself. The Instagram video has been liked<\/a> nearly 75,000 times, sparking reactions ranging from amusement to mild disbelief.<\/p>\n

“My son just said (in awe), ‘We don’t even do that in Wisconsin,'” one person wrote.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Fox News Digital, a spokesperson for Stew Leonard’s described the treat as “the perfect combination of salty [and] sweet.”<\/p>\n

“I held off trying the butter-dipped cone for a few days for fear that I might like it too much, and I was right to do so,” the official said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“It’s absolutely delicious!”<\/p>\n

She added, “The overriding flavors are obviously vanilla, butter and salt,<\/a> but as you take your first bite, there’s a slight crunch from the cooled butter shell, and I think that’s what makes the cone a little addictive and totally decadent.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
