REVIEWS:

Very very easy and super tasty.

I quite liked this one. I mixed it with some cookie dough at the very end to make home made cookie dough ice cream and it tastes just like a major fast food restaurants cookie dough concoction (and I should know; I used to work there!). I will definitely be making this one again, and again, and again. The mix in options are endless! Going to try Oreo cookies next.
