Review: Ben and Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie

I was pondering on whether it was worth doing a review for this one. It's been around for so long and is such a solid household favourite that I hardly saw the point. Surely 99% of people know what this tastes like by now? But then I dug into it and knew that I had to write off the euphoric taste of a good old classic. So bear with me if you will!

On their website, Ben and jerry's describe this flavour as:

Chocolate flavour ice cream with chocolate fudge pieces

A simple yet very appealing combination for all chocolate lovers!

Texture: I said it before with the half baked ice cream, but no one does chunks like ben and jerrys. particularly their fudge brownie pieces. They are just so big and soft and chewy. God knows how they manage to make every brownie so rich and sumptuous. They are very abundant in here so I have no complaints whatsoever other than my personal opinion that I prefer the presence of some sort of swirl, whether it be a cookie or caramel swirl. Even added chocolate chips such as what can be found in their cookie dough flavour would jazz this tub up a lot.

Taste: 9 times out of 10 I will choose vanilla or caramel ice cream over chocolate. But this flavour achieved the perfect balance of richness and sweetness. Ok, maybe its a little bit more on the rich side... and can be a little bit overwhelming if you're not a total chocoholic. Fortunately for me, I am a total chocoholic so can devour mountains of the stuff without feeling even the slightest bit sick. The brownies are sweet burst of an even more concentrated richness, and have a luxurious taste to them.

Overall: This tub doesn't need fancy flavours or textures to be delicious. Though I personally prefer the presence of some sort of caramel and variation from the chocolate flavour, the simple combination of brownies and chocolate ice cream make for a delicious and euphoric flavour. Perfect for all chocolate lovers!
