\"Krispy<\/p>\n

What are they?<\/h3>\n

The Chips Ahoy! Cookie Doughnut is an unglazed shell filled with cookie dough Kreme, dipped in dark chocolate, topped with cookie pieces and a mini Chips Ahoy! Cookie. The Nutter Butter Cookie Twist is an original glazed twist dipped in peanut butter icing, topped with Nutter Butter cookie pieces, and drizzled with peanut butter icing.<\/p>\n

How are they?<\/h3>\n

\"Krispy<\/p>\n

The Chips Ahoy! Cookie Doughnut is a slightly modified version of one of my favorite Krispy Kreme staples, the chocolate iced kreme filled, and it\u2019s pretty damn tasty.<\/p>\n

\"Krispy<\/p>\n

The cookie dough kreme is very similar to the usual white kreme but with a lovely brown sugar flavor and gritty crunch to emulate one of America\u2019s favorite ice cream mix-ins. Somehow the brown sugar presence makes the kreme overall less sweet and when combined with the dark chocolate icing makes for a delicious and well-balanced bite.<\/p>\n

The cookie crumbles on top were pretty much a non-factor \u2013 only giving a tiny bit of crumbly boost without much flavor. I\u2019ve never been a big fan of chewy Chips Ahoy! And unfortunately, the mini cookie on top, which should be crunchy, got a bit soft from exposure to the air.<\/p>\n

\"Krispy<\/p>\n

The Nutter Butter Cookie Twist feels like a bit of a missed opportunity \u2013 it isn\u2019t filled with peanut butter. Since we already know KK can whip up a great PB Kreme from last year\u2019s Reese\u2019s doughnut, I can\u2019t help but feel a bit let down by the lack of peanut butter pop.<\/p>\n

\"Krispy<\/p>\n

The glaze on the twist combined with the cookie crumbles makes the overall profile super sweet, and any salty nuance gets lost in the shuffle. It\u2019s still a decent doughnut but it tastes like a sugary crunchy version of the original glazed that veers too much into sugar coma territory \u2013 nothing special.<\/p>\n

Is there anything else I need to know?<\/h3>\n

This is pure junk food\/fast food fun at its best. The shape of the twist cleverly emulates the shape of Nutter Butter cookies and the Chips Ahoy actually comes with a cookie. Taking childhood cookie staples and transforming them into fresh doughnuts is great, and hopefully the Caramel Tim Tam Krispy Kreme isn\u2019t too far around the corner.<\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/h3>\n

While neither of these doughnuts completely nail the cookie they\u2019re going for, there\u2019s no doubt that the Chips Ahoy one is a tasty remix of one of KK\u2019s best offerings, while the Nutter Butter is forgettable.<\/p>\n
