Every two years the Girl Scouts introduce a new cookie and this year it's Mango Cremes with Nutrifusion.

Lubbock Girl Scouts Product Sales Coordinator Christi Baker said the cookies offer a healthier option. 

"The cream inside if made of Nutrifusion which is a cream that is filled with vitamins that are packed from different fruits such as grapes and strawberries and pomegranates. So it just makes it healthier. They get a percentage of their daily vitamins when they eat a serving of the mango cookie."

One serving of the cookies gives you 15% of your daily Vitamin B intake as well as other vitamins; however the cookies still have the same amount of calories and fat as the other cookies.

Girl Scout cookies are on sale now through March.
