FAST FOOD NEWS: Krispy Kreme Nutter Butter Twist and Chips Ahoy Cookie Doughnuts

Krispy Kreme Nutter Butter Twist and Chips Ahoy Cookie Doughnuts

It appears Nutter Butter and Chips Ahoy are taking a “Don’t Forget About Us” tour this year, since Oreo seems to get all the attention. It began with Chips Ahoy and Nutter Butter cereals, and the next tour stop is at Krispy Kreme where there are new doughnuts that feature the somewhat less adored cookies.

The Nutter Butter Twist Cookie Doughnut features an Original Glazed Twist doughnut dipped in peanut butter-flavored icing, topped with Nutter Butter cookie crumbles, and drizzled with more peanut butter icing. It has 310 calories, 14 grams of fat, 5 grams of saturated fat, 180 milligrams of sodium, 43 grams of carbohydrates, less than 1 gram of fiber, 27 grams of sugar, and 4 grams of protein.

The Chips Ahoy Cookie Doughnut is a cookie dough kreme-filled unglazed shell doughnut dipped in dark chocolate and topped with Chips Ahoy pieces and a mini Chips Ahoy Cookie. It has 400 calories, 22 grams of fat, 9 grams of saturated fat, 210 milligrams of sodium, 50 grams of carbohydrates, 1 gram of fiber, 26 grams of sugar, and 4 grams of protein.

FAST FOOD NEWS: Baskin-Robbins Ice Cream Cookie Cakes

BR Cakes Cakes

Baskin-Robbins offers dozens of ice cream cakes and it’s adding two more with the introduction of its Ice Cream Cookie Cakes.

There are two customizable varieties available — Celebration and Fudge Brownie ‘n Oreo. Although they’re called “cookie cakes,” I consider them to be more like Stuffed Crust Polar Pizzas.

The Celebration Cookie Cake features your choice of ice cream sandwiched between two chocolate chip cookie crusts and decorated with colorful streamers and confetti. Baskin-Robbins’ Fudge Brownie ‘n Oreo Cookie Cake is made up of your choice of ice cream in between two double fudge brownies that are topped with Oreo cookies.

Baskin-Robbins’ Ice Cream Cookie Cakes serve 12-16 and are available at participating locations.

If you’ve tried either one, let us know what you think of it in the comments.
