The (Sort Of) Choco Taco

Now for what you really want to know. What is this new treat? Now, we’re still mourning the loss of the beloved Choco Taco. Well, it seems Cold Stone has heard the people’s cries and is planning to soothe the hurt a little. They’re releasing a Cookies ‘N Peanut Butter Ice Cream Taco. Now this is only for a limited time, but the fact that brands know the people love a good ice cream taco speaks volumes. Maybe we could see this come to the regular menu. Even it’s it’s just the shell that we get to fill with our own creation. (That sounds so good actually. Why has Cold Stone not done that yet?)

But back to the taco. This is a waffle taco filled with Cookies ‘N Peanut butter ice cream that is made with Oreo and Reese’s peanut butter cup pieces. The edge of the taco is then coated in Oreo cookie crumbs and drizzled with a peanut butter sauce. We’re ready to try this! It sounds like the perfect mix of creamy peanut butter and rich Oreos. It’s like the time they made the Reese’s Oreos, but better. Are you going to try the new ice cream taco? Do you wish they’d keep the taco around for longer? Let us know down below.
