Recommendations for ice cream sandwiches please!

I just tried Jeni's today, the chocolate with chocolate cookie. It's okay, 6/10. Tasty, but small and the cookie to ice cream ratio is off and it could use more ice cream. Good chocolate flavor but could have had more depth. They were 3 for $6.50 and I'd be okay with the price if they knocked my socks off.

I've also tried . . .

Nightingale: so disappointing, 2/10. I tried them twice because I thought I got a pack that had melted and refroze, but apparently they are just snotty and icy. I hear they used to be awesome. Flavor was pretty great but the texture was revolting.

Tollhouse: meh. Frozen dairy product between two forgettable cookies. Another 2/10.

Ruby Jewel: I think this might be a regional product. I want to love these, they have such great flavor combos but they end up tasting kind of bland. The lemon and lavender is probably my favorite. 4-7/10 depending on flavor.

Oreo: I do like these but they make me sad because they could be phenomenal if made with real ice cream. Still, they scratch an itch when I crave Oreos. 5/10.

Fatboy: surprisingly delicious for being so affordable, 7/10. Birthday cake, sugar cookie, and cinnamon churro all rock. Standard flavors also good but not as great.

It's Its: we're divided in our house on these. I say 2/10, I don't like the cookie texture or the sweetness level. My husband would say 10/10!

Any brands I should look for that I haven't tried?

    Trader Joe’s sublime ice cream sandwich’s and Thelma’s ice cream sandwich’s

    Graeters’ chip wheelies are quite good, if you have one in your area.

    Idk but don’t try the van leeuwen ones they’re bad (at least the one I tried was)

  4. The only ice cream sandwiches I’ve ever bought repeatedly has been coolhaus. And they discontinued them all or went out of business.

    I’ve had a similar experience with nightingale. I probably wouldn’t go that low because I think the cookies are pretty good. But the ice cream sucks, I agree.

    I like a classic Chipwich, and they’ve expanded with other flavors (like vanilla ice cream rolled in crushed almonds with chocolate cookies)

  7. Dangerous-Ordinary21

    Chipwich chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwiches are sooooo good.

    no mentioning of fatboy is extremely tragic…

    probably THE BEST and most reliable ice cream sandwiches of all time. not a single miss on their lineup.
