I&#8217;ve always been a fan of frozen section whipped topping, not the stuff that sprays out of the can, so I got some vanilla ice cream and put the Mix-Ins to the test.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll start with the Oreo, which set the bar super high. I first tried each straight from the container before adding them to the ice cream. Oreo had an extremely authentic Oreo flavor &#8211; it didn&#8217;t taste artificial at all. When I gave my husband a taste, he likened it to an &#8220;Oreo without all the cavities&#8221; since the Cool Whip is super light. You definitely get a taste of cookie chunks in there. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Cool-Whip-Mix-Ins-Oreo-2.jpg?resize=550%2C565&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Cool Whip Mix Ins Oreo 2\" title=\"Cool Whip Mix-Ins Oreo 2.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"550\" height=\"565\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This was a new concept to me, since I&#8217;m normally not used to something IN my Cool Whip, but on top of it (i.e. sprinkles or chocolate sauce). I really liked the added texture, and the cookie chunks brought the chocolate flavor of the Oreo. It almost tasted like a mousse that I would eat by itself, without adding it to anything. Don&#8217;t be surprised if you find me alone with a spoon and this container&#8230;that&#8217;s how much I enjoyed it. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Cool-Whip-Mix-Ins-Double-Chocolate-Brownie.jpg?resize=550%2C486&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Cool Whip Mix Ins Double Chocolate Brownie\" title=\"Cool Whip Mix-Ins Double Chocolate Brownie.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"550\" height=\"486\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Double Chocolate Brownie was good, don&#8217;t get me wrong, but it just wasn&#8217;t as delightful as the Oreo. The best part of this flavor was the brownie bites &#8212; so soft, chewy, rich and chocolate-y. But the Cool Whip itself was lackluster &#8212; just a simple chocolate with an artificial taste. <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Cool-Whip-Mix-Ins-Double-Chocolate-Brownie-2.jpg?resize=550%2C550&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Cool Whip Mix Ins Double Chocolate Brownie 2\" title=\"Cool Whip Mix-Ins Double Chocolate Brownie 2.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"550\" height=\"550\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You know when you crack open a peanut shell only to find a mediocre-sized peanut inside? That&#8217;s the way I felt with the Double Chocolate Brownie. I was hoping for the whole package, but only got the chunks. It was because of the brownie chunks that I gave it as high of a rating as I did, because they were so good. I would have liked the Cool Whip itself to be that great, not just the mix-in.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Cool-Whip-Mix-Ins-Double-Chocolate-Brownie-3.jpg?resize=449%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Cool Whip Mix Ins Double Chocolate Brownie 3\" title=\"Cool Whip Mix-Ins Double Chocolate Brownie 3.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"449\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>On top of ice cream, both flavors added a nice touch.
