Turkey Hill Cookie Butter Ice Cream


[New for 2022] Do I have any faith left in Turkey Hill's mainstream lineup? Honestly? Like, super honest? No, not really (which is ironic considering that I love their all natural line up). I do still buy their cookie dough for my wife, but that's pretty much it (and even that isn't nearly as good as it used to be). Sure I could use new content for the blog, but if I have no urge to finish the container, what's the point? That said, I decided to cut them a little slack and try...

Turkey Hill Cookie Butter Ice Cream

I forgot the opening shot, but it's not really different from the scoop shot.

To put it simply, this one is boring. Very boring. It's like a mild cinnamon light ice cream that has a hint of cake batter vibe to it. Did they even try to compare it to other cookie butter flavors before releasing it? Gee, sorry, a long time ago I decided to be less aggressive with my opinion but I am pretty disappointed with this one and a lack of good sleep isn't helping me express my opinion.

Even this sundae wasn't enough to save this one. It's just a boring ice cream.

On Second Scoop: I've had no urge to eat this one on it's own, so I've been mixing it with other stuff in the fridge. It's just not terribly good, but if you mix it with a good ice cream, it becomes less boring and then I don't feel bad for wasting my money. 

'gram note: someone asked me for suggestions of Turkey Hill flavors they should try, and I couldn't come up with any (besides all natural). It's frustrating because I remember how much I loved Turkey Hill as a kid and their mainstream lineup is so far from that now. I know the only constant is change, but that doesn't mean change can't make me sad.... ok, sorry, it's just ice cream, there are other ones that can be eaten. Think happy ice cream thoughts!

Verdict?  boring
Buy Again?  nope

  1. This even sounds boring! I'm shocked that they didn't try to add cookies to it or something else.

  2. Odd they would go plain base here. With the success of their graham swirl in the Pumpkin Pie flavor I would have shot for a cookie butter version. That's a goof..............

  3. Looks dull to me! Where is the swirls of cookie butter?! Pieces of cinnamon cookie dough?!

  4. For years this site has had a personal vendetta against Turkey Hill, and I see even in 2022 it continues LOL.

    I'm eating COOKIE BUTTER from Turkey Hill RIGHT NOW: It tastes EXACTLY like bakery BUTTER cookies.

    Why are you judging it on how it looks? It's a FLAVOR, not a dress you're picking out to wear at a prom LOL.

    These comments are funny: "Looks boring" "looks dull" LOL, IT'S ICE CREAM GUYS! YOU EAT ICE CREAM! It's COOKIE BUTTER! Not ORANGE CREAMSICLE RAINBOW GREEN ICE FUDGE SWIRL!!

    Just stop reviewing Turkey Hill. You obviously tried to get some freebies from them and they rejected you, and so now you all you do is bash them.

    Your wife likes the cookie dough flavor from Turkey Hill? That doesn't make sense at all, since that's one of their WORST flavors. Treat her better and get her some Ben and Jerry's The Tonight Dough. She'll be hooked.

    And stop bashing Turkey Hill, sheesh.

  5. This is proof I post comments that I don't agree with in any way.... seriously, the urge to yell back at you is very strong at the moment. We are civilized here, we do not YELL.

    If you are so up to date on my disdain for turkey hill, why are you commenting seven and a half months after this review was posted? and if I'm so off base, why come back at all?

    Tonight Dough is overrated and emphasizes your lack of overall ice cream tasting credentials.

  6. Dubba Wubba,

    If you actually said anything I'd comment, but here's my response that you're going to post again, right? LOL

    "This is proof I post comments that I don't agree with in any way.... seriously, the urge to yell back at you is very strong at the moment. We are civilized here, we do not YELL."

    The urge to tell you that you just did yell at me by saying you had the urge to is also very strong at the moment. You did yell LOL. (MAD at my commentary on ICE CREAM? LOLLLL)

    "If you are so up to date on my disdain for turkey hill, why are you commenting seven and a half months after this review was posted? and if I'm so off base, why come back at all?"

    Forgive me for not going to your website every single day of my life. The truth is, whenever I responded is the day I purchased it and ate it, and wanted to see what the reviews were, if they liked it as much as I did. The only negative review I found, guess what... YOU! Because you hate Turkey Hill! LOL.

    Instead of asking me why I come back at all, ask yourself why you do these reviews? When you have the answer, write it here, and that's my answer to you too, Dubba Wubba. :)

    "Tonight Dough is overrated and emphasizes your lack of overall ice cream tasting credentials."

    CREDENTIALS FOR ICE CREAM? IT'S ICE CREAM! LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL. This isn't WINE buddy lol.

    The Tonight Dough is one of the greatest ice creams ever created, and the only person who seems to hate it is you. Did you get turned down for a free sample from Ben & Jerry's or something?

    Listen, want me to stop commenting? Here's a tip: Stop posting these crazy reviews.

    Otherwise, Mr. Dubba Wubba.... I'll be here enjoying my AMAZING TASTING TURKEY HILL COOKIE BUTTER ICE CREAM, which is why I came back again, what, 7, 8, 9, 10 months after my other post?

    I'll challenge you again, publicly, and let's see if you do it: Let's do a podcast together, on Zoom, face to face and we'll have a debate about Ice Cream and see who the real expert is.

    The choice is yours, Dubba Wubba. :)

  7. Do you have social media, possibly one where you review ice cream? If so, please fell free to post the info so we can be amazed by your opinions.

  8. Follow-up for the all knowing anonymous:

    "It tastes EXACTLY like bakery BUTTER cookies."

    Do you think this tastes like butter cookies and not cookie butter? If so, let me point out that they are two very different things in terms of taste.
