Reihonna--There are few combinations as surefire as chocolate and peanut butter. This idea seems even better, chocolate, peanut butter and brownie. The sort of thing other people's mothers wouldn't let them have. (not my mom, she never seemed to find a reason we couldn't have chocolate) The ice cream was delicious, but had a serious flaw. The brownie and the peanut butter were thick and vicous. The peanut butter exhibited the properties that are often celebrated in children's stories; that is, it made your mouth all stuck together and the chewing was labored. With the intense brownie and peanut butter thickness and a very strong chocolate flavor in the brownie and a slightly dry texture in the peanut butter, I felt that the ice cream required hot fudge syrup just to keep up a reasonable moisture level. I never thought I would say such a thing, but the huge clumps of peanut butter and brownie would have been much more enjoyable if the clumps were smaller and, yes, maybe even if there was less of each topping.
Scale: 1 to 10: 9
Recommend?: Yup, just get the hot fudge, or some whipped cream
Order again?: yes, but I think i would add a scoop of plain chocolate to the cone to even out the ice cream/peanut butter/brownie balance.
Ian-- This was really good, it was the first time I tried it without a cone, just had them put in a bowl with some whipped cream. The brownie chunks are great contrast to the chocolate. Pure decanadence.

Recommend? Yes it's yummy
Order again; yes, just the same, who doesn't like brownies
We are tasting and rating ice cream! Yum!

Are the peanut butter and brownie chunks swirled into the ice cream or are they on top? I am soooo confused! I may have to try it myself...it would be a great sacrifice, but I am up for it!!!
ReplyDeleteThe pieces are all swirled in and the chunks are huge! (Like the size of a gumball, each)
ReplyDeleteHelllloooooooooo!!! Where are you?
ReplyDeleteYou have a lot of flavors to go!!
We started to get kinda chunky ourselves, so we made a new rule--we have to exercise before we can have ice cream. You can see how often we exercise...
