Haagen Dazs Non-Dairy Mocha Chocolate Cookie
Haagen Dazs Vegan Mocha Chocolate Cookie is labeled as "Bold coffee and rich Belgian chocolate, with added crisp cookie crumble and chocolate cookie pieces." Being someone who loves coffee and chocolate this got a lot of praise. I took the recommendation from a couple friends to seek out and find this (which was not easy). I used the flavor locator on the webpage and it was not in four of the five stores it said had it available. None the less let us see if this non-dairy lives up to its expectations!
The base is unique because it combines both chocolate and coffee to make a great mocha. The first hit on your taste buds is a rich milk chocolate flavor with subtle coffee that lingers into the aftertaste. Even if you are not a huge coffee fan this will not turn you away due to the density of the coffee flavor. I personally enjoy heavier chocolate to coffee flavor as it still gives you the best of both worlds. Remember this is a non-dairy flavor, therefore, it is going to be extremely hard in texture. This must sit out for 10-15 minutes to give it the proper consistency before scooping.
As I scooped my way through the pint the chocolate cookies pieces are absolutely everywhere. There are also instances where you get large chocolate shards that resembled thin Hershey chocolate bars. The milk chocolate mix-ins elevate the ratio of chocolate over the coffee to a further degree. The crisp cookie crumble is slivered throughout the entire pint from top to bottom. The crunchiness of the cookie crumbles and the chocolate mix-ins start to amplify the further you dig as it overpowers the base.
Overall this is a great experience especially for those who love chocolate and coffee. Haagen Dazs provided just enough coffee to make this a true mocha with the chocolate being the dominant factor. Any chocoholic could pick this up and be pleasantly surprised. Let us face it everyone loves cookies. The cookie swirl and chocolate cookie pieces just take this pint up another notch.
