Stewart’s made it years ago, I think called peanut butter ripple. I remember because my brother and I would “mine” the ice cream looking for the best “vein”. I can still picture the massive slab of peanut butter we found once–I forget whether we actually came to blows over it. We’d eat all the chocolate ice cream away and then break up the vein into smaller slabs of PB sugarness. Yum.

Maybe my boss had the temperature of the freezer set too low, but the peanut butter froze really hard and was next to impossible to scoop. On the bright side, I had amazing triceps when I worked there. ---

My father used to love pistachio ice cream and we used to go to the Howard Johnson’s to buy it in quarts. It was also not available pre-packed, so we had to have the clerk hand-pack it for us. ---

In Canada (and maybe the US too, I have no idea) Scotsburn introduced a flavour last summer called Chocolate Peanut Butter Parfait that’s pretty much exactly what you describe. I don’t think you can get it in regular size tubs though, just the 16 gallon ones. ---

No, I think that’s vanilla ice cream with chocolate and peanut butter swirls. They do have one like the OP wants: chocolate ice cream with a peanut butter swirl and mini peanut butter cups. I just got some of this the other night. I can only eat a couple spoonfuls at a time because of the sugar content but it’s good to have around. ---

> [@shy\_guy](#): > > When I worked at Ben & Jerry’s a couple years back, we had Chocolate Peanut Butter Swirl… Yes, we used to have a B&J scoop shop in Seattle, and this was my favorite. You could also get pint tubs of any of the scoop flavors. It was especially good when you got an especially large vein of peanut butter, you’d lick of all of the chocolate from around the PB glob, then chew the half-frozen PB. ---

I seem to remember when I was a kid Bresler’s 33 Flavors had a chocolate ice cream with peanut butter but without chocolate chips mixed in…not many Bresler’s left in the world though.
