A "Graeter" Ice Cream

When my dear friend over at Carano's Punk Rock Cucina recently blogged about Graeter's Ice Cream, I thought to myself:  "Sounds good.  Too bad it's not available around here"  So you can imagine my pleasure and surprise when the very next day I got an email from Earth Fare Supermarket with a coupon for a free pint of Graeter's with a $5 purchase!  It's as if the very universe was telling me I needed to try this ice cream.

After trying it, I have to say that: The universe was right!!

Being the coffee and chocolate obsessed gal that I am, I went straight for the Mocha Chocolate Chip

This ice cream is simply delicious!  Maybe it's their French Pot Process of making only 2 gallons at a time.  Maybe it's the all natural ingredients.  But whatever the reason - I consider it pure heaven in a cardboard container! 

The coffee flavor was perfect.  Strong without being bitter.  The ice cream was smooth and creamy.  The chocolate.  Oh... the chocolate!  I think they must grate the chocolate "chips" themselves.  The sizes varied and I even found a large chunk buried in the middle of my pint! 



I'm not ashamed to tell you that in the past two days I have eaten the entire pint all by myself... with apologies to the Man of the House and a promise to pick up more soon!
