Crumbl Cookies review #89 - Wafer ft KitKat and Valentine Confetti

Crumbl Cookies review #89 - Wafer ft KitKat and Valentine Confetti, visited February 18, 2025 

This week's menu had the original Tres Leches Cake and one of my favorites, the Iced Oatmeal but what I wanted to try was the Wafer ft KitKat as that seemed new (to me). Plus, surprisingly for a Tuesday, my store still had the Valentine Confetti from last week so I decided to try that as well.

From the description, I figured this would be a really good brown sugar cookie covered in melting milk chocolate and garnished with KitKat chunks,

And I was right. Albeit they're never as generous or as chunky with the chopped up candies as their marketing and advertising always showcases so I had to screenshot the pictures from the Crumbl app and compare it to the actual cookie I got. But, to be honest, I've had worse, particularly with the Twix cookie where all I got was Twix dust so the KitKat one was nothing to complain about.

The cookie itself was amazing - thick, excellent brown sugar flavor and wonderful chewy texture. I liked the milk chocolate melting on top of it and wish Crumbl would do more glazed or light icing cookies or those with just melted milk chocolate on top than their thick frostings.

Ironically, perhaps the only thing I didn't care for as much with this cookie were the KitKat pieces. Similar to when they garnish with cereal, the topping stales quickly against the moisture from the melted chocolate. KitKat is made up of thin wafers so they're even more prone to softening and coming across as stale. I get that Crumbl likely wouldn't want to serve just a plain brown sugar cookie covered in chocolate so the KitKat garnish is a schtick that adds to the visual appeal. Still, even with or without the KitKat, this is a great cookie.

I had thought about getting the Valentine Confetti cookie last week as I tend to like their sugar cookies (sans any almond frosting) but hesitated because I don't care for sprinkles baked into the cookie. I just want a plain sugar cookie. But that's not what cookie shops do and having it leftover from last week seemed like another chance to try it. So I did. As expected, I liked the cookie's flavor. It's a nice, basic, vanilla sugar cookie. Also as expected, I would've preferred it without the sprinkles baked into the cookie.
