Indulgence: Sara Lee’s Rocky Road Overload 0

I’ve been mean­ing to try Sara Lee’s Rocky Road Over­load ice-cream for a while now, but I don’t buy ice-cream all that often so it has taken me a while to get around to it. I’m glad I didn’t wait any longer.

This is a very more-ish, indul­gent ice cream. The ice­cream is fab­u­lously choco­latey, and dot­ted with marsh­mel­lows and nuts. There is also sup­posed to be rasp­berry sauce, but I didn’t really notice it.  Not that it mat­tered — the sec­ond time I took this out of the freezer I almost for­got I was sup­posed to take pho­tos, and the tub was get­ting alarm­ingly low when I finally remembered!

This is a ‘eat it by itself’ kind of ice-cream, as it doesn’t really match with other desserts.  The marsh­mel­lows and nuts can be a lit­tle sparse in some places, but the ice-cream is nice enough by itself so that wasn’t a has­sle.  How­ever, as enjoy­able as this ice-cream is, I prob­a­bly won’t be buy­ing it very often, as the rate that it dis­ap­pears from the freezer is not good for my waist­line! It’s hard to savour this ice-cream in tiny nib­bles, espe­cially when you are hunt­ing down one last marshmellow.
