[Crumbl](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-peanut-butter-puffs-cookie) is going all in on peanut butter this week with the addition of the brand's new Peanut Butter Munch Cookie.

Available as part of this week's lineup of rotating weekly cookie flavors (available now through May 4, 2024), the new Peanut Butter Munch Cookie is a delicious twist on a classic cookie recipe. The new baked good consists of a warm [peanut butter cookie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peanut-butter-cup-brownie) topped with creamy milk chocolate, a layer of crunchy peanut butter-coated cereal pieces, and a finishing sprinkle of powdered sugar.

Alongside the new Peanut Butter Munch Cookie, Crumbl is also bringing back its [Tres Leches Cake](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cookies-cream-tres-leches-cake) in a sharable new family-size format, and serving up other popular cookie flavors like the Churro Cookie and Blueberry Muffin Cookie.
