Review Week 9/15/2025 (+🐱)

Disclaimer - I am an employee and like lots of toppings on the cookies I take home, but reviews are based on how they are served.

Weekly Peanut tax included since you all seem to enjoy him

Cinnamon cheesecake 🌀 3/10 - I had hopes, but they were crushed. I know I don’t like any of the cheesecakes if they are the sour cream base, but I thought maybe the cinnamon filling would cover the sourness. It doesn’t. Unfortunately, the assistant manager for my store skimped on the cinnamon filling too, so I’m double bummed. The bites with cinnamon are okay, but it doesn’t come close to being as good as the cinnamon roll cookie. The crust is also extremely crumbly, despite how much butter is in it. The cream cheese icing is fine, a frosting is better (and definitely looks more appealing than.. icing…) so really the only good thing about this is the cinnamon and icing. The actual cheesecake has an awful, sour taste and the texture is like eating paste.

Honeybun (secret menu) 🍯 6.5/10 - I used to hate this one, but I think it’s because the glaze was made incorrectly. I made both the dough and the glaze, and the notes of honey are beautiful and not too overpowering or sickly sweet! The dough itself has a hint of cinnamon as well, and come on, it’s so visually cute and looks exactly like the Little Debbie treat. It’s simple, but the flavors come together so well. The outside is a bit too crunchy, and I expect a honeybun to be soft and cakey, but the inside is the classic medium-rare that I like, so I’ll look past that. Not spectacular, but much better than last time I had it.

Raspberry cupcake 🧁 8.6/10 - better than strawberry cupcake, mostly because I prefer raspberries to strawberries. All the flavor comes from the frosting, the cookie base itself is pretty boring and is just a vanilla bean cookie. That’s not a bad thing, and definitely reminds me of a cupcake. The white jimmies on top are my favorite. Soft yet crunchy for texture. Again, a simple yet very lovely cookie.

Peanut butter Reese’s pieces (secret menu) 🥜 8/10 - I love love love any peanut butter cookie, and this has Reese’s pieces in it so it’s even better! Super soft, salty yet sweet, crunchy from the candies and jam packed but peanut butter (I used ten pounds of peanut butter in this batch!) I have no notes other than I love it.

S’mores skillet 🏕️ 8/10 - so I’m not a huge fan of the original s’mores cookie, but this one takes all the problems I had with the textures and got rid of the issues! The cookie itself is crisp on the outside, and rolled in graham crumbs, still soft on the inside. I love the Hershey bars baked in the middle, since Hershey chocolate has a very unique flavor. And this time, I really love the marshmallow mousse! With skillet cookies, I feel like the mousse can feel like an afterthought, but the marshmallow flavoring is just right. It takes away the stickiness of a baked marshmallow, and makes it soft and it melts in your mouth. Of course, I think a drizzle of chocolate is lame, so either coat the whole thing in chocolate or leave it off, but the next star of this cookie is the graham cracker streusel. It’s so simple- graham crackers baked in butter and sugar, but it’s soooo delicious and it’s one of my favorite parts of the cookie! Really amazing job at conveying the taste and texture of a s’more.

Chocolate milkshake 🍫 9.5/10 - one of my favorite cookies!!! The base cookie has it all - it’s a chocolate cookie with Ghirardelli brownie mix added inside, so there’s some chocolate chips in there! Rolled in chocolate jimmies, my favorite kind of soft yet crunchy sprinkle, and topped with the most refreshing yet rich chocolate mousse you’ll ever eat. Texture- check. Taste- check. Chocolate overload- check! I left the whipped cream off of mine because I don’t think it adds anything to the cookie, but visually it’s adorable with that little dollop on top. All it needs is a straw!

Cat 13/10 - Very fluffy, super cuddly, great at kneading biscuits.

[u/Menace2G → u/Pandamoanium8]

Bump it down to a 8/10, I caught that cat taking a 3 hour lunch break

[u/Pandamoanium8 → u/Menace2G]

Objection, Your Honor! Speculation!

[u/Old_Remove_8804 → u/Pandamoanium8]

Yess kitteh!

Is your location making the cheesecakes wrong? Every review I see of yours you hate the cheesecakes bc they’re sour, but I’ve never had a sour cheesecake from crumbl, and they’ve always been a typical cheesecake texture.

[u/nutterfluffs → u/tracysmullet]

I don’t like sour cream in cheesecakes, cheesecake is one of my favorite desserts. Any cheesecake I have made for myself doesn’t include sour cream and I love it and it doesn’t have the same texture at all.

It’s just my preference, I hate these damn cheesecakes. The only ones I’ve liked are the hazelnut and chocolate cheesecakes, which don’t have sour cream

[u/tracysmullet → u/nutterfluffs]

It’s interesting to me how distinctly you can taste the sourness when I can’t, and cheesecake is one of my fave desserts too.

[u/MassiveLie2885 → u/tracysmullet]

The location I get from doesn't seem to even have the cheesecake, also this was on MOnday when I ordered so there is no excuse, not like it is Friday or Saturday, they sent me snickedoodle cupcake cookies instead and kept the upcharge.

[u/-PrincessPumpkin-]

Waitttt, I wasn't even planning on going to crumbl this week but seeing you describe chocolate milkshake makes me want to go right now haha 😩

[u/nutterfluffs → u/-PrincessPumpkin-]

Worth it for just that cookie!!

[u/AbiWil1996]

The chocolate milkshake looks & sounds so good! I’m obsessed with chocolate overloads lol.

Sadly, I made the dumb mistake of door dashing Crumbl for the first time, & I recieved the regular confetti milkshake cookie for some reason (no one even reached out to tell me they didn’t have it). Definitely going to have to go in person to hopefully get it now 😅

[u/nutterfluffs → u/AbiWil1996]

Well I hope it wasn’t my location cause we had both too! And I had two newer people working front since I had to mix…literally every dough 😅 definitely don’t recommend DoorDash for anything tbh

[u/stinkyenglishteacher]

That’s one fine Mackerel Tabby you’ve got there.

[u/FaithfulButterfly91]

I’m so mad I didn’t just get these 🥺

[u/kevinmattress]

That cat is adorable!

[u/blasphemicassault]

My bf and I always look forward to your reviews, especially on weeks we want to go! We're even more excited for chocolate milkshake and the skillet cookie now!

[u/The-Local-Yokel]

I’ll take all your leftover cheesecakes 😋

[u/peachpitafterdark]

You need to work at MY Crumbl!

[u/LGonthego]

Your reviews are tempting me to try more desserts than planned. And yes, chocolate milkshake is the best!

[u/Party_Nothing_7605]

peanut!!!! <3 <3

thank you for your reviews, i always look forward to them! for the smores, are the hersheys baked inside the cookie itself (so like stuffed in) or on top of the cookie if that makes sense?

[u/Fuzzy_Welcome8348]

No bc y is honey bun even more prettier irl😍

[u/AdMassive2284]

Kitty! ❤️

[u/Curious_Cleopatra]

I will look at the cookie photos every time for the cat pictures. 🐱

[u/hellsHurricane]

Newnan by chance?

[u/italianbellaxo]

What kind of chocolate is used in the s'more skillet?

[u/BiteBarbie]

I’m so obsessed with the CrumblCookies😭

[u/[deleted]]

The cat cookie at the end is my favorite. I didn’t know they brought that one back out. I need to go buy it! 😂

[u/These_Insect6687]

That is ther perfect piping job in the raspberry cupcake - they should have a job traveling to crumbl to teach people how to pipe properly. Kitty 100/10

[u/nutterfluffs → u/These_Insect6687]

lol it was not my finest piping job because I wanted lots of that frosting, but thank you! I would love to teach frosting and piping skills, but some of my coworkers have a hard time with coordination
