Dairy Queen is getting in on the Valentine’s Day fun with the introduction of two new decadent truffle treats. That’s right, two new treats!
Of course, last year’s magnificent Dipped Strawberry Blizzard is still available. The DQ holiday blizzard is topped with real strawberry and chunks of Ghirardelli chocolate. Although, with a treat so sweet, it does have us wondering what DQ could possibly have in store for us next.
Well, in addition to some old menu favorites, say hello to the new Triple Truffle Blizzard and Triple Truffle Blizzard Cupid Cake! Whether they’re homemade or store-bought, there’s nothing like some enticing truffles on the national day of love. And we’ve got all the sugary details on the latest DQ truffle treats.
Peanut Butter, Fudge and Caramel—Oh, My!
The Triple Truffle Blizzard Treat is every dessert lover’s dream come to life. Get ready for an epic combination of flavors (think Reese’s Pieces meets caramels galore). We’re calling it now, this treat may just go down in Dairy Queen history.
This Blizzard of the Month features a smooth blend of peanut butter, fudge and caramel-filled truffles with a chocolate topping blended with DQ’s signature soft serve. The result? A cup of chocolate treat covered ice cream goodness with truffle chunks that’s hard to resist. It really is like enjoying a Valentine’s Day candy box in one heavenly DQ Blizzard!

If you’re in the mood to share a special something with your special someone—or more, as this treat can serve up to four—DQ has you covered! The heart-shaped Triple Truffle Blizzard Cupid Cake is here for Valentine’s Day, too.
Indulge in an ice cream cake that offers a layer of the Triple Truffle Blizzard Treat along with an even sweeter layer of peanut butter, fudge and caramel truffles. It’s not only adorable but also satisfies any sweet tooth!
Where You Can Indulge in DQ’s Valentine’s Day Treats
The Triple Truffle Cupid Cake is available at participating Dairy Queen locations. You can also order online for in-store pickup. The Triple Truffle Blizzard is made-to-order in-store and offered in four sizes, including a Mini. You will only be able to find the desserts for a limited time, so hurry!
Dairy Queen Copycat Recipes to Try
Inspired by: Original Cheeseburger Signature StackburgerTwo mouthwatering burger patties stacked high with toppings like melted cheese, pickles, ketchup and mustard. Our smash burger recipe is just like DQ's Original Signature Stackburger—and maybe even better.
Inspired by: Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Blizzard TreatThese rich chocolate peanut butter shakes will make you feel as if you're sitting in your local Dairy Queen. But since you're the one whipping it up, you can add as many Reese's cups as you heart desires!
Inspired by: Pretzel Sticks with Zesty QuesoServe up warm pretzel sticks straight from the oven. Don't forget the cheese sauce! To make it zesty just like DQ's, add diced jalapenos and green chiles.

Inspired by: Chili DogThe very thought of a hot dog dressed in chili makes us giddy. Just add slightly melted cheese to get that straight-from-the-drive-thru taste.
Inspired by: Caramel MooLatteYou can easily indulge in a MooLatte at home anytime. This copycat recipe will give you the extra caffeine to get you through your day.
Inspired by: Crispy Chicken SandwichHere's our take on the Crispy Chicken Sandwich from Dairy Queen. We know everyone says theirs is better than the original, but ours really is.
Inspired by: Banana SplitServe up this classic Dairy Queen staple at home! We promise it's not as intimidating as it looks. Top scoops of your favorite vanilla ice cream with sauce, whipped cream, strawberry slices and bananas. Sprinkle a few nuts on top for good measure, too.
Inspired by: Cheese CurdsDQ's cheese curds are the ultimate in delicious comfort food. Dip them in ranch dressing, ketchup or barbecue sauce for the full experience.
Inspired by: Strawberry SundaeA simple scoop of vanilla ice cream topped with strawberry jam makes for the perfect treat. We like adding a handful of chocolate chips and chopped nuts to our sundae.
Inspired by: Chicken Strip BasketYou can skip the drive-thru and make these golden chicken fingers in your own kitchen. They're finger-licking good!
Inspired by: Strawberry ShakeNo matter what the temperature is outside, there's nothing quite like a cool strawberry shake to finish a meal. Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream for the finishing touch.
Inspired by: Onion RingsThese Dairy Queen-inspired onion rings are a healthy alternative to the deep-fried version. But don't worry, they're still as crispy as ever!
Inspired by: Mint Chip ShakeYup, we even have a copycat recipe for DQ's latest (and limited time) release: their Mint Chip Shake! Ours even uses up a handful of Thin Mints...talk about yum.
Inspired by: Hot Fudge SundaeOur hot fudge sauce always turns out smooth and yummy—just like DQ's. The dark chocolate flavor, with a hint of rum extract, is not overly sweet but will still satisfy a chocoholic's cravings when served over vanilla ice cream.
Inspired by: French FriesThere's nothing like fresh-cut, fresh-cooked french fries. This recipe you can make at home is so much better than any fast-food variety.
Inspired by: Cherry Misty FreezeBlend together a homemade Cherry Misty Freeze for a cool and refreshing treat. It's sure to hit the spot on both warm and cool days alike.
