Chocolatey goodness yum yum yum!!! Those are the words that accurately describe the Royal Ultimate Choco Brownie blizzard. This is probably the most chocolate blizzard there is at Dairy Queen – the only thing that could make it more chocolatey is chocolate ice cream. Don’t be mistaken between the Royal Ultimate Choco Brownie and the Choco Brownie Extreme. Royal blizzards have a syrup down the middle, in this case, the Royal Ultimate Choco Brownie has fudge down the middle. Let’s get right into the ingredients!

1. Vanilla Ice Cream: No matter what type of blizzard, the base will always be vanilla ice cream. Unless, the customer specifically asks for chocolate ice cream, all blizzards are made with vanilla ice cream.
2. Brownie Pieces: No chocolate extreme blizzard is complete without brownie pieces. They offer a perfect balance of chewiness and richness, adding rich texture to every bite.
3. Chocolate chunks: These versatile chunks are found in a variety of different blizzards. They add the perfect crunch to every bite, and they are the perfect complement to the soft brownie bits. Don’t be afraid to ask for extra! (For an additional charge.)
4. Cocoa Fudge: The whole reason the blizzards looks like it’s made with chocolate ice cream! The rich fudge transforms the vanilla ice cream into a creamy chocolatey goodness. Cocoa fudge brings all the ingredients together like a sauce in an entrée.
5. Hot fudge: The special part of Royal blizzards is the syrup down the middle. After the blizzard is fully blended, we remove the cup with a hole down the middle of the ice cream. Then, we fill the hole with hot fudge, and that’s what makes the blizzard a royal. Another common Royal blizzard is the Royal New York Cheesecake which has strawberry down the middle.

This blizzard meets every chocolate lover’s dream: a blizzard full of chocolate. I interviewed an avid fan of the Royal Ultimate Choco Brownie Blizzard and this is what she had to say: “I love the rich brownie bits, and the creamy fudge, surrounded by the chocolate swirled vanilla ice cream.” Don’t just take my word for it, take the word of this fan!

The Royal Ultimate Choco Brownie Blizzard stands as a testament to Dairy Queen’s mastery of chocolatey indulgence. With its rich blend of creamy vanilla ice cream, brownie pieces, chocolate chunks, cocoa fudge, and hot fudge, this Blizzard delivers an unparalleled experience for chocolate lovers everywhere. So, next time you drive by a DQ, make sure to stop and order a small Royal Ultimate Choco Brownie Blizzard. Served upside down or the next one’s free!

Welcome back everyone. This is the first post of the new semester, so let me give you a little recap of my break. My family went to Cabo where we ziplined, jet skied, went to the beach, and ate delicious food. I can’t forget I also worked at Dairy Queen. In the winter, business gets really slow, and that makes it the worst time to work. I find myself sitting in the office waiting for customers to come in. So, while I waited for customers, I decided to make a Snickers blizzard one day.

I played soccer all throughout my childhood and middle school, but there’s this memory I have of one year of tryouts. It was freezing cold, and the tryouts were outside. I remember everyone was in shorts but the top halves of our bodies were bundled up. We were topped with beanies and our hands were in gloves. In the column to the right is a picture of my elementary soccer days. The topic of this blog is not my soccer tryouts, although they are connected, trust me. During a water break, I told my parents I was so hungry (I was probably exaggerating). One of my parents had a Snickers in their pocket, and that satisfied my hunger. That moment reminds me of the Snickers’ commercials that say “you’re not you when you’re hungry.” I was a different person after I ate that bar. My hunger, no longer an issue, I took to the fields energized.

Back to the Snickers blizzard. Before this winter break, it had been years since my last Snickers blizzard. It isn’t personal to the blizzard, but there are just better players in a very talented league, but I had to come back to a veteran. A customer just ordered a Snickers blizzard, so I decided to make my own. I have no regret of that decision because it brought me back to the cold, dark tryout night. I remember my legs freezing, but everyone was playing through the numbness. The Snickers blizzard is made with Snickers and chocolate sauce; chocolate always brings back memories of ice cream or any sweet treat because it is something you can indulge in at any point of life.

DQ brings back memories no matter what you eat there. Either ice cream or a burger, there is always a memory that is connected to the food. That’s the best part of DQ; there is always a memory associated with the trip. Don’t forget the next time you drive by a DQ, make sure to stop and order a small Snickers blizzard.
