Best Ice Cream on Earth

I'll bet Jeff Lebowski likes raisins in his ice cream.

Oh you know he does!

That would be amazing.

Tried a couple new Blue Bell flavors this past weekend, as the half-gallons were on sale at Smith's.

Groom's Cake - milk chocolate ice cream with chocolate cake pieces, chocolate-coated strawberry hearts, and swirls of strawberry sauce and chocolate icing
Sounds super bizarre, but at $5 for the half gallon, I will willing to take a flyer, knowing that I could always blend it into chocolate-strawberry shakes. I digress. The strawberry ripple is nice, and the chocolate frosting tasted like frozen hot fudge nuggets that softened in your mouth. The real star of the show was the strawberry-filled chocolate hearts. They were delish, and biting into then to have the strawberry jelly come out was more rewarding than it should have been. 7.5 out of 10. Would be higher if the complimentary flavor had been raspberry or cherry, as I think they both pair better with chocolate than strawberry. Nevertheless, delightful flavor. Would buy again.

Oatmeal Cream Pie - oatmeal flavored ice cream with hints of brown sugar mixed with soft oatmeal cookies and a vanilla icing swirl.
I also really liked this one. Very creamy and the brown sugar and cinnamon pops in the oatmeal cookie pieces were perfectly flavored to go alongside the base ice cream. My kids all said it was too "holiday flavored" but they are just robots who think anything with a little sugar and spice is a holiday dessert. I really liked this one, though it's a little one-note. We served it with homemade oatmeal cookies (sans raisins secs) and it was delicious. 7/10 would buy again.

I really love Blue Bell. Even the plain old homemade vanilla is great. But my favorite is Pecan Pralines n' Cream. I love it so much that I really can't buy it, because I'm the only person in my family who likes it, and it's shocking how quickly I can finish a 1/2 gallon solo.

A combination of Earnestly Chocolate, Coconut Joy and Graham Canyon at the BYU Creamery this weekend. Delicious!

They’re moving right along with the new Creamery building there, too.

Best ice cream I have ever had was at the Biltmore villiage in Asheville, NC. Wife was shopping, and I ducked into their little ice cream shop and got a double scoop of Banana Pudding and Sea Salt Caramel. So delicious and creamy, and they complemented each other. I’ll be chasing that ice cream high the rest of my life.

Hey, that's only a couple of hours from me! I'll have to try it.
