Ample Hills Creamery Lemon ginger sorbet and Snap, Mallow, Pop ice cream: Family friendly ice cream shop Ample Hills Creamery is probably as Brooklyn as an ice cream store can get. The flavors are completely made in-house, hand-drawn illustrations act as signage, and flavors like “gooey gooey butter cake” and “Nonna d’s oatmeal lace” hearken back to an extremely classic American childhood that I can only imagine those that had cookie jars in their kitchens may have experienced. AKA this is a very white-person ice cream shop (not to denigrate - just stating the facts). Their lemon ginger sorbet sounded like a perfect match for my tastes on paper, but it came off overly sweet and more lemon than ginger. The Snap, Mallow, Pop flavor, though, had a stretchy texture unlike any ice cream I’ve had before due to the fresh marshmallow that somehow maintains its sticky consistency even when frozen. Sprinkled with toasted rice crisps, this was a texturally satisfying sweet treat. An ice cream shop for those looking for comforting, familiar flavors made with integrity. 3.0/5.0
