\"Dairy<\/a><\/p>\n

At first glance, it\u2019s really easy to read Peanut Butter Monster Cookie as Peanut Butter Cookie Monster. That\u2019s what I did, and the first thought that formed inside my Thunderdome of a mind was of Cookie Monster\u2019s much less celebrated, but much more wholesome brother who Sesame Street<\/i> forgets to talk about. <\/p>\n

He\u2019s a behind-the-scenes hero, taking care of Cookie Monster\u2019s kids, consoling his distraught wife, just being the glue when his brother doesn\u2019t come home at night because he\u2019s fallen off the cookie wagon. Is he in jail? On the cookie version of Skid Row, snorting copious amounts of cookie crumbs? Nobody knows, but Peanut Butter Cookie Monster is there to pick up the pieces. What a stand up, made-up guy.<\/p>\n

The Peanut Butter Monster Cookie Blizzard more than lives up to the imaginary character it isn\u2019t named after. The word \u201cmonster\u201d is appropriately used too since this Blizzard IS a monster…of peanut butter flavor. <\/p>\n

\"Dairy<\/a><\/p>\n

There are two peanut butter factors at play with P.B. cookie chunks and peanut butter being blended throughout the Blizzard. The sweet, nutty condiment is in every bite. It takes over the vanilla ice cream like some kind of edible symbiotic life form. You can try really hard to gather up the M&M’s and choco chunks but you\u2019re still going to get a strong nutty presence. <\/p>\n

I like how they put both the cookies and smooth peanut butter topping inside. It\u2019s kind of like spreading some of the popular condiment on a P.B. cookie. You get the authentic peanut butter taste, and the more processed taste from the cookies, and the result is a heavenly combo, never an overkill.<\/p>\n

\"Dairy<\/a><\/p>\n

The M&M’s accent the P.B. The candy shells really jump out. Because of their surrounding, they basically turn into Peanut Butter M&M’s. But if the Blizzard scientists had tried to put actual Peanut Butter M&M’s inside, I think that would\u2019ve been an overload. It would most likely result in an actual peanut butter monster being born, only it wouldn\u2019t be friendly like P.B. Cookie Monster. Instead, it would be more like a boss from the Dark Souls<\/i> game series. <\/p>\n

I went to the drive-thru to get mine, and I have to say I really hate how they make it a point of handing you the Blizzard upside down now. The window guy looked so cocky when he did it, like he wanted to rub it in my face I wasn\u2019t going to get a free Blizzard for giving it to me right side up. <\/p>\n

Not that I would call them out on that anyways, but man, I wish the next Blizzard he handed out fell right out of the cup. Then he could go make himself a nice humble pie Blizzard.<\/p>\n
