"The chocolate ganache has a smooth, fudge-like texture, and the vanilla pudding ice cream is perfectly creamy. All in all, the ice cream brings the same joy as the dirt cakes made in times past, a sentiment shared by fans of the ice cream. Some naysayers liken the flavor to an overrated version of cookies and cream ice cream, but the 4.6-star rating speaks for itself - hardly anyone wants to see Dirt Cake in the Ben & Jerry's flavor graveyard."
"It's easy to say that you can't make the best Ben & Jerry's ice cream flavor better than it already is, but it does lack a crucial ingredient that's a must-have in the classic dessert: gummy worms. The crunchy chocolate topping, chocolate cookie swirls, and ganache in the ice cream practically make it a sundae of its own, but to add the metaphorical cherry on top, the chewy critters are a surefire way to elevate the ice cream."
Ben & Jerry's offers well over 90 flavors, and Dirt Cake stands out as the top pick. Dirt Cake combines abundant chocolate crumble, a smooth fudge-like chocolate ganache, and creamy vanilla pudding ice cream. The flavor evokes childhood dirt cake desserts while delivering more generous chocolate components. The ice cream holds a 4.6-star rating and enjoys strong fan approval, though some critics liken it to an overrated cookies-and-cream. Suggested enhancements include adding gummy worms to replicate the classic dessert and extra crunchy toppings such as coconut flakes to introduce a tropical contrast.
