Having never seen <em>The Goonies<\/em> apparently, my wife was less amused and more poised to call an ambulance, clearly unimpressed and rather disturbed by my spasmatic gyrations. <\/p>\n<p>After consulting with my divorce attorney (what monster has never seen <em>The Goonies<\/em>?!) I chose to sample each of the candy pieces individually before going in for the m\u00e9nage \u00e0 truffle.<\/p>\n<p>As a card-carrying peanut butter-holic, the salty, gritty quality of the peanut butter candy is particularly satisfying and well balanced in its chocolate shell. The caramel truffle is no Sloth though as it provides a sweet, syrupy texture that finishes with a deeper but faint coffee note. The fudge truffle is less potent but lingers more than the other Goonies with a pleasantly fudgy aftertaste. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Dairy-Queen-Triple-Truffle-Blizzard-3.jpg?resize=539%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dairy Queen Triple Truffle Blizzard 3\" title=\"Dairy Queen Triple Truffle Blizzard 3.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"539\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When multiple pieces converge on one\u2019s spoon, the Triple Truffle becomes, dare I say it, three times as good. The peanut butter and caramel complement each other particularly well while the fudge pieces lend a needed cohesive backdrop. Unfortunately, the chocolate topping they advertise as being included is so faint and has less depth than One-Eyed Willy\u2019s vision. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Dairy-Queen-Triple-Truffle-Blizzard-2.jpg?resize=599%2C400&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dairy Queen Triple Truffle Blizzard 2\" title=\"Dairy Queen Triple Truffle Blizzard 2.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"599\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the end, the bites with healthy truffle representation are excellent but infrequent, leaving many a naked spoonful of the somnolent base.
