The Dairy Queen Oreo Fudge Brownie Blizzard is one of the latest offerings from the QSR brand that is positioned to offer hungry patrons a delicious treat that doesn't hold back when it comes to texture.
The ice cream treat is made with a base of the brand's signature soft serve ice cream that has been blended with Oreo cookie pieces along with brownie bits and cocoa fudge. This gives the treat a distinctly chocolatey flavor that's also packed with texture thanks to the baked good ingredients within.
The Dairy Queen Oreo Fudge Brownie Blizzard is the brand's August 2020 Blizzard of the Month and is available now at participating locations nationwide, but only for a limited time.
