See, the ice cream is fine. It\u2019s creamy and surprisingly rich for healthy ice cream. Halo Top\u2019s chocolate base is a good one, and the different-than-normal-ice-cream texture almost makes it reminiscent of a frozen chocolate malt concoction you\u2019d get at a baseball game. (Have you ever had one of those things? Comes with a wooden spoon? Those things.)<\/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\/2022\/04\/halotopccbic3.jpeg?resize=600%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Halo Top Chocolate Cake Batter Bowl\" title=\"halotopccbic3.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So, ice cream = good. But for the life of me, I can\u2019t tell what makes this \u201cChocolate Cake Batter.\u201d Except for the aforementioned sprinkles. And here\u2019s the thing about the sprinkles: there are a lot of them. And they\u2019re, you know, sprinkles. Just little crunchy bits of mostly tasteless confection. They don\u2019t really add anything, unless you\u2019re four years old. In which case, how\u2019d you end up on this website, anyway? That\u2019s pretty weird.<\/p>\n<h3>Anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>Probably not surprising, but Wikipedia has a wildly robust page on sprinkles. I was Googling to find out where they are called \u201cjimmies\u201d (it\u2019s a northeast United States thing, and it always makes me laugh), but I also learned that in England \u2014 and Australia and New Zealand \u2014 they are also popularly referred to as \u201chundreds and thousands.\u201d I love it, but it\u2019s so wordy! When you go to the ice cream shop, do they actually ask, \u201cAn\u2019 would you like ta\u2019 top off yeh Sundae with some \u2018undrets an\u2019 thousands, guvnah?\u201d That\u2019s wild!<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>Regular Halo Top chocolate ice cream is a nice, comparatively healthy frozen dessert treat, and I\u2019d recommend it to just about anyone. I\u2019d only suggest getting the kind with HUNDREDS AND THOUSANDS if regular chocolate is out, though. Or you\u2019re four. In which case, again, I ask, \u201cWhat are you doing here?
