Ben & Jerry’s Peanut Butter Cup

Thank goodness for unpredictable Colorado weather!  It got warm enough for Spouse and I to indulge in a pint of another untested flavor of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream.

This time we decided to try “Peanut Butter Cup” and were not disappointed.

My first spoonful reminded me of “Choc-Nut”, my favorite Philippine sweet.  Choc-Nut was the reward I got from the sari-sari store owner off 11th Street?in New Manila. My yaya would take the day’s pig slop from my grandmother’s household to the store owner who had her little pigpen in her backyard.  I was just a toddler but remember accompanying my yaya and being handed a Choc-Nut or two when we said our good byes.  I have always loved Choc-Nut.  I found it in a Filipino store here once but was disappointed to find the Choc-Nut had gone old and stale.

Going back to B&J’s Peanut Butter Cup…yup, it did not disappoint. This time, the pint lasted 3 days.  I was pleasantly surprised to find one or two whole Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and not just smidgens of it.

These guys really know how to make ice cream.  I think they start by leaving their conscience outside the drawing room where they first dream up their flavors.  And I love them for it!!!!

I am planning to include photos in this blog.  That will be as soon as I learn how to work Word Press. I’m definitely not a techie and rely heavily on Spouse to introduce me to all the technical stuff that has to be done to get this blog looking the way I want it. For now, I hope the words will suffice.

Enjoy your weekend!
