Maybe all those raw cookie dough warnings were on to something…
Apparently if you eat enough raw cookie dough, you will die, become a monster, and then start feeding on monster cookie dough – which is now called Monster Munch.
Well, at least that’s how I interpret this new Nestle Toll House Monster Munch…
…Oh God I’m a monster!
Ya know, we monsters really get a bad rap. Literature and film would have you believe that we’re all out there chasing children, devouring dogs, and gobbling up Grandma, but in reality? Man, we just like to get together and try new recipes.
Our new Nestle Toll House Monster Munch is oatmeal cookie dough with peanut butter & chocolate morsels topped with candy-coated gems.
Doing what got me here in the first place, the raw cookie dough is not one of the better ones I’ve ever had. Without any cinnamon or spice, the oatmeal flavor just doesn’t pop. Too bad we didn’t have any spice on hand; a monster’s pantry is not well-constructed.
Yet remarkably and unfortunately, the rolled oats win out the flavor war over the peanut butter and chocolate chips. Considering this dough is made with peanut butter folded in AND peanut butter morsels throughout, it’s truly horrifying how little I can taste the PB.
I can almost taste more salmonella than I can peanut butter in the dough.
But what a difference baking them makes!
The entirety of the oatmeal cookie dough takes on a roasted peanut butter flavor, much to my delight. Both the chocolate chips and peanut butter chips announce their presence at various points; you’ll know you hit one because they are hot, melty, and delicious. The chocolate candy gems add decoration and a bit of crunch, although – because they are slightly melted – their flavor is a little redundant with the chocolate chips… a relatively minor issue.
A remarkable turnaround from their raw dough form, my Nestle Toll House Monster Munch Cookies are actually pretty solid! A peanut buttery cookie with lots of chocolate and peanut butter chips? Genius.
Next time I’ll just add some cinnamon…
Or maybe the tears of an infant. ?
