WEEKLY CRUMBL | 6.16.23

There’s nothing like a Friday night Crumbl Cookies run! I was excited about this week’s line-up which includes Double Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter Cup, Classic Krispies Bar, Brownie Batter and Confetti Milkshake. I chose all minus the Classic Krispies. 

My main motivation was *obviously* the Peanut Butter Cup. I am a pb and Reese’s girl through and through! I’ve always wanted to try this particular cookie too. As much as it pains me, this one ranked in the bottom for me. I was SO excited about the entire cookie: peanut butter base, peanut butter sauce + pieces of Reese’s. Despite all of that, I think it lacked a strong peanut butter flavor. It definitely wasn’t as rich or peanut buttery as I prefer or like a lot of their cookies are. I also think there wasn’t enough of the Reese’s to pack a punch. It ended up being just okay, definitely a little disappointing for me...

On a much sweeter note, the Confetti Milkshake! So so yummy + my favorite of this week. I really like sprinkle sugar cookies which was exactly what this one tasted like! I also thought the icing was a great pair. It has a light and whippy texture, the perfect balance to the crunchiness of the cookie. It also wasn’t too sweet or sugary.

Next up is Brownie Batter which is rich and fudgy, just like a brownie. I liked that this one was chocolatey but not overly sweet either. I think with how rich it is, a milkier chocolate flavor would have been too much. The center was also gooey and delish!

Last but not least, Double Chocolate Chip. I actually really liked this one. I wouldn’t say it’s the best chocolate chip cookie I’ve ever had, however I liked it a lot better than the regular Crumbl chocolate chip. The flavor and mix of chocolate was nice and I always like a bit of sea salt. My only critique is that they got a little heavy handed with the salt— definitely more than a dash. I think overall it was just a tad too salty but all in all, not bad!

Which flavor would you choose from this week?
