New Review! Ben and Jerry's Cookies and Crea Cheesecake Core Ice Cream

New review alert!


This time it is Ben and Jerry's Cookies and Cream Cheesecake Core Ice Cream. The flavor consists of Chocolate and Cheesecake Ice Creams with Chocolate Cookies and a Cheesecake Core. 


Let me start off with the fact that I LOVE Ben and Jerry's chocolate flavor ice cream in like, everything. But I thought the cheesecake ice cream tasted more like vanilla ice cream. The core had a more intense cheesecake flavor, which would make sense since it is more dense in texture. 


The cookie chunks were about dime-size and were plentiful within the pint. The cookie chunks did not have a crispy "crunch" to them. But I liked all of the flavors put together. 



I am still not sure what to think about the core and it's texture. The core flavors do compliment the ice creams well but I am still getting used to it.

Overall, I would give this flavor a 8/10. I liked all of the flavors together. The only down-side is that I would have liked to taste more of a cheesecake flavor in the ice cream. 

I currently have 4 more pints in the freezer and I recently went to a scoop shop in Williamsburg, VA and tried a new flavor there. There will be more to come.

As always, thanks for reading and happy eating!

Chocolate Therapy!

Just in time for finals, this weeks Ben and Jerry's flavor is Chocolate Therapy!


Ben and Jerry's Chocolate Therapy is Chocolate Ice Cream with Chocolate Cookies and Swirls of Chocolate Pudding Ice Cream.


There is soooooo much chocolate in this flavor. For me, tt is hard to pick out the chocolate ice cream from the chocolate pudding. All of the flavors blended in so well with one another. But you can definitely see the chocolate pudding with the chocolate ice cream (you can see the different shades of brown from the different chocolates in the picture below).


There is a little bit of a crunch due to the chocolate cookies in the ice cream. There are not a lot of chocolate cookie pieces within the pint. But I actually don't mind it because the chocolate flavor is so intense and a little bit of a different texture is a nice addition to the flavor.

This flavor is a chocolate lover's dream. It really is a therapy for anything. If you LOVE chocolate, this flavor is for you. This is probably the best chocolate ice cream that I have ever tasted.

I do not know what my next flavor is going to be. I am moving out of my dorm tomorrow (sad face) and I am going back home. It is 10 days until graduation and I am freaking out a little bit (just a little). Anyways, I will try and get a new flavor soon and I will let you guys know what flavor I get.

Thanks for reading!

Chocolate Nougat Crunch!!

It has been very warm outside in Connecticut the past few days and this ice cream has really hit the spot!


Ben and Jerry's Chocolate nougat Crunch consists of Sweet Cream Ice Cream with Fudge Covered Wafer Cookies and a Chocolate Nougat Swirl.


The sweet ice cream is really, really, REALLY sweet (which is a good thing). I was almost surprised on how sweet it tasted. But it also has a vanilla-y taste to it which tasted very good. The fudge covered wafer cookies have a crunch to them and are not softened at all by the ice cream. And there is a good amount of fudge covering the cookies. They are bite size and there was a lot of them in my pint.


I was expecting the swirl to be chocolate colored but it is actually a nougat color. I was expecting the swirl to be more chocolate-y but I didn't really taste the chocolate in the swirl. But it was very good nevertheless.

Overall, the flavor is really good. But I feel that the title of the flavor is quite deceiving since there was not a lot of chocolate in it. It may have been my taste buds but the only noticeable chocolate I had tasted was from the fudge covered wafers. I did not really taste a lot of chocolate in the swirl; I feel that the nougat flavor is more overpowering than the chocolate flavor. But it is a really cool flavor regardless.

I need to buy another flavor. I am not sure when I will be able to go food shopping next. I will let you all know when I get another flavor.

Happy Eating!!!

Milk and Cookies!!!!

Finals week is over so I can write my review on Milk and Cookies!


Ben and Jerry's Milk and Cookies consists of Vanilla Ice Cream with a Chocolate Cookie Swirl, Chocolate Chip & Chocolate Chocolate (yes that is right, double chocolate) Chip Cookies.


This flavor has so much stuff in it. There is not a dull bite in this pint. Every bite consists of chocolate chips, cookie pieces and the cookie swirl. The vanilla acts as the "milk". I love the fact there is both chocolate chip and chocolate chocolate chip cookies. The best part of the ice cream is that there are actual CHUNKS of cookies in here as well! And the cookie pieces are not soggy like when you dip cookies into milk. They are crunchy which adds an extra texture to the ice cream. The swirl adds to the extreme cookie flavor.  


I really liked this flavor. I even told my friend about the flavor. He bought it and he now loves it as well.
Definitely go out and try this flavor if you haven't already done so.

My next flavor will be Cinnamon Buns. I should have a review next week.
