Costa is serving pigs in blankets mac 'n' cheese for Christmas and we can confirm it's delicious!

We're calling it now, we reckon we have stumbled across the best festive food combination out there this year and we should now as we've actually tried it!

Give a round of applause to Costa who have united two winter warmers together to make a dream dish that returns to its festive menu after proving massively popular last year.

The famous coffee chain, with plenty of branches in the Newcastle area, is once again selling, wait for it....pigs in blankets mac n cheese.

Yes, you heard that right, macaroni cheese with the added bonus of pigs in blankets, which are of course the best part of Christmas dinner!

Priced from £3.40, customers have been going mad for the combination of macaroni pasta with a cheese sauce, Cumberland pork sausage, mature Cheddar cheese, sweetcure bacon, spinach topped with a parsley crumb.

A spokesperson for Costa told Chronicle Live: "We’ve had SO MUCH love for this product – it’s one of our best sellers and is flying off the shelves."

For journalistic purposes only of course, we called into the Eldon Square branch of Costa on a wet and miserable Thursday afternoon in Newcastle and as well as being a perfect winter warmer, we can confirm the pigs in blankets mac n cheese was absolutely delicious!
