\"Dairy<\/p>\n

What is it?<\/h3>\n

Like last month\u2019s Oreo Firework Blizzard, the Reese\u2019s Outrageous Blizzard is a copycat of the candy that shares its name. August\u2019s Blizzard of the Month combines peanut butter and caramel topping in vanilla soft serve with Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cups and Pieces — but not <\/a>the eponymous candy bar.<\/p>\n

How is it?<\/h3>\n

The Outrageous is a dream come true for my accordion-necked alien induced addiction to Reese\u2019s Pieces. The peanut butter-flavored soft serve is appropriately brash for a treat heralded as outrageous, and the extra saltiness it brings is complemented fantastically by the sweeter caramel.<\/p>\n

While the base is full of leguminous goodness, what really had my heart Skippying a beat is the addition of Reese\u2019s Pieces. Broken bits of crispy shell provide the crunch that famously enamors wrinkly extra-terrestrials. The sweetly coated candy\u2019s classic taste is amplified by the caramel and peanut butter infused vanilla ice cream.<\/p>\n

\"Dairy<\/p>\n

Sadly, the less numerous Cups are crowded out. There are enough to impart a needed chocolate vibe, but it lacks the pronounced punch one expects from Reese\u2019s Cups. To the Outrageous\u2019 credit though, every spoonful includes a large, if imbalanced, amount of candy.<\/p>\n

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

\"Dairy<\/p>\n

This is an iteration on 2017\u2019s <\/a>Reese\u2019s Extreme Blizzard where chocolatey topping is swapped out in favor of caramel. As peanut butter and chocolate will probably be found on my death certificate, I am shocked that I love the Outrageous whereas I was underwhelmed by yesteryears not so extreme take on Reese\u2019s. I guess the more accurate Reese\u2019s Satisfactory Blizzard didn\u2019t have the same ring to it. <\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/h3>\n

If you need a Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cup fix, stick with the classic menu mainstay. If on the other hand you love Reese\u2019s Pieces or peanut butter in general, then the Reese\u2019s Outrageous will leave you phoning home to tell all of your friends about it.<\/p>\n
