Chocolate Fudge Brownie

When I went out to the freezer to grab from my “stash” I already had the flavor in mind that I was going to pluck for my tasting pleasures. Well, when I opened the freezer I didn’t see the flavor I was looking for. I counted the remaining pints and the correct amounts were there. I then realized I totally thought I bought a flavor that I obviously didn’t DAMN!

Chocolate Fudge Brownie Verdict:

I have to go on bragging again about my mom’s baking. I love brownies, period. But when she makes them, they are honestly the best. It’s the perfect amount of chocolate to ice cream. When we have family dinners we usually end up having that for dessert. And since our birthday is coming up, I think I may suggest that for our dessert. That or apple pie, or possibly both.

Chocolate Ice Cream with Fudge Brownie

CHOCOLATE is the best word to describe this flavor. It’s chocolate upon chocolate, and it was AMAZING. I love chocolate! Now if you have a weak stomach for sweets, DON’T eat this. The chocolate levels will give you a stomachache. I ate more than normal, and had a tummy ache for the remainder of the afternoon. But I don’t really care because the flavor was AMAZING.

Ok, back to the review. The chocolate ice cream was greatly flavored. As for the fudge brownies, I wish I could pick them out and just eat them alone. They brownies weren’t too big and were perfectly portioned throughout the pint. All I can say is, if you’re a chocolate lover get this in those times of need. It will work wonders.

New York Super Fudge Chunk

I am back to my old stunts again this week. I bought 8 pints this past week. They were on sale and I couldn’t pass up a good deal when it occurred. I grabbed my hand basket and walked straight to the freezer section. I literally stood there and took a census of the flavors and contemplated on the ones I needed to get. I was once again looked upon like I was crazy when I piled 8 different cartons of ice cream on the conveyer belt. He already thought I was crazy, so I asked: can you not bag those yet; I want to take a picture.

New York Super Fudge Chunk Verdict:

I’ve never been to New York, so I don’t have knowledge on that city except of what I’ve heard from friends. Honestly didn’t think I would have a memory for this flavor. But once I took the first bite the flashing started. It tasted JUST like Rocky Road, minus the marshmallow. Growing up (and to this day) I didn’t like rocky road, well I thought I didn’t like rocky road. I would always pass on ice cream when my family, full on rocky road lovers would have this flavor. I boycotted it like children boycott broccoli, spinach and Brussels sprouts. I am and always have been a Cookie N’ Cream kind of guy. Damn, I’ve been missing out on what I thought I didn’t like.

Chocolate Ice Cream with White & Dark Fudge Chunks, Pecans, Walnuts & Fudge-Covered Almonds

To all odds, I very much so enjoyed this flavor. I knew what Rocky Road tasted like, because I knew what I didn’t like. And look, I proved myself WRONG! The fudge chunks were perfect. I especially enjoyed the white fudge chunks….yummy. And the pecans, walnuts & fudge-covered almonds were a great combination. Not one component of the ingredients over powered the other. It was a mix that I honestly thought was going to be too much, but like the flavor, it proved me wrong. I do enjoy a good surprise from time to time.

And to my readers who thought I would gain weight during this process, I’ve lost 3.5 inches off my waist in the last three months. SO SUCK IT!

Rocky Road-ish

I have a confession… We are officially on flavor 37 and this was flavor 28. I tasted it, posted the picture but never reviewed. I apologize! So I bought the flavor again and re-tasted it because I needed to do a true review.

Rocky Road-ish Verdict:

I am trying to figure out where the “ish” is coming from. Is it because there’s toasted marshmallow and fudge covered almonds? If so, it’s like me saying I’m straight because I’ve “ish’d” with a girl before.

Toasted Marshmallow Ice Cream with a Toasted Marshmallow Swirl & Fudge Covered Almonds

Even though I don’t believe the name of the flavor should have “ish” in it, I still enjoyed the flavor. Maybe it should have been named something entirely different. But it’s a little too late for that input with the marketing department at Ben & Jerry’s. It was very creamy and could be a tad too sweet for some with the marshmallow swirl in it. But I enjoyed it so much more for that factor. Another perk to this flavor was that the almonds weren’t full almonds. They were more bit size and not overwhelming to the flavor.

I am not going to promise that I won’t fall behind again. But hey, I got to enjoy this flavor twice now. And there’s no complaints coming from me.
