Yes, Cocoa Puffs: think outside the sphere!

It may be a 9-year old idea, but Cocoa Puffs Brownie Crunch is a cereal I’ve wanted to see back on shelves for a while now—partly because I’ve never tried it, but mostly because it appears to be a blessed four-sided union between Cocoa Puffs, Cookie Crisp, Chocolate Cheerios, and…Double Chocolate Krave?

Coming this August, 2020’s Cocoa Puffs Brownie Crunch mimics 2011’s box design right down to the oven mitts—the only thing missing this time is the unsettling chocolate schmear on Sonny’s face.

With this spring’s return of Fudge Brownie M&M’s, here’s hoping I won’t need to dunk a Duncan Hines-worth of those plunkers in a bowl of Brownie Crunch Cocoa Puffs to get the rich, eggy fudge goodness promised by a bold word like Brownie. But hey, if nothing else, there’s always a quart of Dutch chocolate milk to do the dirty work for me.

Our thanks again to Cereal Life, who appears to have a very valuable GM inside scoop, for the tip.
