It's no secret that I love this stuff. As you may have gathered from the reviews of Lucerne's Nuttin' Better and Haagen Dazs Chocolate Peanut Butter, I kind of like peanut butter and chocolate. A lot. A lot. And this product is the beginning of my love affair with that combo in ice cream form. Now, Moose Tracks is not an Island Farms creation by any means, but here in BC, it is marketed under this brand. And there are now a boatload of different Moose Tracks varieties and flavours to choose from. However, the original will always be my favourite: awesome in its purest form.
This product consists of "vanilla flavoured ice cream with peanut butter cups and famous Moose Tracks fudge". In my most recent carton, some of the fudge was overblended with the ice cream in places, resulting in spots that looked like they contained chocolate ice cream as well (as you can see in the photo). The fudge ribbon (for lack of a better term) is richly chocolatey and sweet (but not overpowering), melts easily in your mouth, and it is balanced well by the vanilla. The peanut butter cups are small, but there is a generous distribution of them, so the peanut butter flavour is never lacking. Overall, this is a well-done, tried-and-true variation on the peanut butter and chocolate theme that never fails to please in this neck of the woods!
Recommend to a friend? Absolutely
Repurchase? Of course - this will always be a delicious standby

ReplyDeleteThanks! And thank you for reminding me to add a link to your blog - I have been meaning to for ages, but I kept forgetting.
Deletelove this ice cream and blog.
DeleteI used to love Island Farms Moose Tracks. A few years ago they replaced the peanut butter cups with peanuts. I was not impressed and found a new source at Safeway. So the peanut butter cups are back? I should try this again.
