Lately, I tore aside the Woman Scouts for making some fairly horrible cookies. (See: Adventurefuls)
This acquired me pondering:
- Are they shedding their edge?
- Am I shedding my thoughts?
- Might a pair of senile males make a greater cookie than they’ll?
Let’s discover out!
Ben & Jerry’s Chewy Gooey Cookie
Alright, so I do know I’m reaching right here. Sure, I do know the Woman Scouts don’t truly bake the cookies. And sure, I’m conscious that Ben & Jerry don’t even work for the corporate that share their names. And YES, I do know that Keebler makes knock-off Woman Scout cookies year-round, however I actually don’t need to award this fictional cookie bake-off I’ve created in my fats mind to a bunch of imaginary Elves.
Enter Ben & Jerry’s Chewy Gooey Cookie. Clearly modeled after the Woman Scouts’ Samoas, this new year-round pint options milk chocolate & coconut ice lotions with fudge flakes, shortbread cookies, and caramel swirls.
It’s the second time in as a few years that Ben & Jerry’s is gunning for the Woman Scouts’ heads, after we noticed them introduce Thick Mint (Junk Banter Mint) as a part of the Topped lineup.
Let’s take a second and have a good time the return of the coconut ice cream base within the Ben & Jerry’s lineup. Chewy Gooey Cookie is presently the one pint that provides it. I’m a giant coconut fan and I discover this to be one in all their greatest bases; only a ton of refreshing taste. The pint says you don’t need to be a coconut fan to get pleasure from this ice cream, however I feel that’s a bunch of malarky. In case you don’t like coconut, odds are you’re going to hate this.
The chocolate ice cream is commonplace fare, however you may’t have a Samoa with out chocolate and it will get the job completed. The fudge flakes add little pops of chocolate much like what you’d discover striping and coating the underside of the particular cookie.
Sadly, that’s about the place issues fall off for Ben & Jerry’s Chewy Gooey Cookie.
There’s nothing particularly chewy or gooey about this “cookie”, as a result of there quantity of caramel is severely missing. The above photograph is an efficient illustration of your complete pint; there are some skinny swirls right here and there, however I didn’t encounter something I might name a great “pool” of caramel wherever all through. Typically it’s so skinny you could’t even style a lot of it, which is simply an enormous disgrace as a result of you may inform the flavour combos can be dynamite if the caramel was extra outstanding.
I purchased a second pint simply to see if my first was a fluke, nevertheless it was extra of the identical.
The shortbread cookies are there however I’ve to be sincere with you. As a lot as I really like shortbread cookies, they’re the worst cookie addition to an ice cream for my part. When out of the freezer and swimming in powerfully flavored coconut and milk chocolate ice lotions, they sort of simply style like frozen nothingness.
Ben & Jerry’s Chewy Gooey Cookie is a tasty model of a coconut chocolate chip ice cream, however doesn’t do a Samoa justice in any respect.
I suppose I’ve no selection however to offer the title to the silly Elves.
Burning Questions:
- My daughter is a Woman Scout! Inform her her cookies suck.
- How dare you! How dare SHE?
- I assumed the Adventurefuls tasted nice. Properly, perhaps you may have COVID…
