Although it might be considered sacrilege to say down here in the "Deep South," I'm just not a fan of red velvet cake. I've tasted a ton of different incarnations, including my own, and the flavors or texture never really appealed to me. Well, except for the cream cheese frosting, let's be honest here. I could eat cream cheese frosting till the cows came home (oh will they ever come home?).
So when I opened up the pint of New Orleans Ice Cream Co's Red Velvet Cake, I was all ready to hate it. Thankfully, I was wrong...
Their oh-so-decadent Creole Cream Cheese Ice Cream had been transformed with thick, chewy chunks of red velvet cake and a thin ribbon of chocolate swirl running throughout. I had no difficulties gobbling this pint down all by myself. Maybe I should try Red Velvet Cake again?

My issue is that Red Velvet just isn't chocolaty enough. I've taken to replacing a 1/4 cup of the powdered sugar in the frosting with cocoa and that does help.
You know, that is probably my issue as well. I always thought the amount of cocoa was too small. I am going to try that next time...thanks Mary!
