We Tried The Crunchy Cookie M&M’s Before Anyone Else And Can Confirm They're Worth The Wait

There are so many versions of classic candy I sometimes can't keep up with what's new to try out. Thankfully, when it comes to all things M&M's, I do my best to stay in the know because who doesn't love those tiny morsels of chocolate goodness. I love them in peanut, pretzel, all of the flavors, and a new crunchy cookie flavor is hitting shelves in March 2022. Lucky for you, I was able to try them out before anyone else and I can now tell you if they'll be worth the wait.

On the front of the Crunchy Cookie M&M's packaging is an image of an M&M's cookie, which is one of my favorite genres of cookie so I was excited before even taking a bite. I was expecting the candies to almost taste like an inside-out M&M's cookie and after popping a couple in my mouth I can confirm that's the sensation you'll get.

Each candy had a crunch when you bit into it, similar to a Rice Krispie but covered in the familiar M&M's chocolate coating. FYI, upon reading the ingredients, that's exactly where the crunch comes from! The pieces were enjoyable on their own but my first thought was about how delightful these Crunchy Cookie M&M's would be in a bucket of warm popcorn. I'm not someone who generally goes for crunchy chocolate candy like Buncha Crunch, but the ratio of crunch to coating of these M&M's might just make me a believer.

You can take my word for it now: These M&M's will be one of your new favorites. You'll have to be patient, though, because, again, they're officially hitting shelves in March 2022. The good news is they'll be a permanent addition to the M&M's line-up so when they inevitably become your go-to you can rest assured they'll be available.
